+ (description
+ "Expression levels of mRNA molecules are regulated by different
+processes, comprising inhibition or activation by transcription factors and
+post-transcriptional degradation by microRNAs. @dfn{birta} (Bayesian
+Inference of Regulation of Transcriptional Activity) uses the regulatory
+networks of transcription factors and miRNAs together with mRNA and miRNA
+expression data to predict switches in regulatory activity between two
+conditions. A Bayesian network is used to model the regulatory structure and
+Markov-Chain-Monte-Carlo is applied to sample the activity states.")
