aDetailed lists are provided in Additional file 1: Table S1, with i) list 1 including 250 regulated genes identified as controlled by PPARA from a literature review [20] and ii) list 2 including 136 differentially expressed genes in response to PPARA agonists in cell culture [21].

bRegulatory candidates of these lists were elicited by an automatic algorithm based on encyclopedic information extracted from the TRANSPATH database and modeled as a causality graph. The candidates were scored for coverage (i.e., the number of targets regulated by a given candidate) or for specificity (i.e., a tradeoff between the number of regulated targets and the total number of regulated molecules) and the first 50th candidates having the highest scores were retained.

cThe range [Ni-Nj] indicated that the genes or the protein complex in which they participated had the same score as a set of Nj- Ni+1 molecules. When a molecule or a complex appeared more than once, only its best position was shown.
