RegNetwork: Regulatory Network Repository of Transcription Factor and microRNA Mediated Gene Regulations

RegNetwork is developed based on 25 databases, among which 17 of them provide the regulatory relationship information and 8 of them are supporting databases containing annotation and other necessary information in order to derive the regulatory relationships.
