query_entity_AtomicRegulon
Query the entity AtomicRegulon.
An atomic regulon is an indivisible group of coregulated features on a single genome. Atomic regulons are constructed so that a given feature can only belong to one. Because of this, the expression levels for atomic regulons represent in some sense the state of a cell. An atomicRegulon is a set of protein-encoding genes that are believed to have identical expression profiles (i.e., they will all be expressed or none will be expressed in the vast majority of conditions). These are sometimes referred to as "atomic regulons". Note that there are more common notions of "coregulated set of genes" based on the notion that a single regulatory mechanism impacts an entire set of genes. Since multiple other mechanisms may impact overlapping sets, the genes impacted by a regulatory mechanism need not all share the same expression profile. We use a distinct notion (CoregulatedSet) to reference sets of genes impacted by a single regulatory mechanism (i.e., by a single transcription regulator).
