Abstract
In this paper, we present the framework of a Gene Regulatory Networks System: GRNS. The goals of GRNS include automatically mining biomedical literature to extract gene regulatory information (strain number, genotype, gene regulatory relation, and phenotype), automatically constructing gene regulatory networks based on extracted information and integrating biomedical knowledge into the regulatory networks.
