title: When noisy neighbors are a blessing: analysis of gene expression noise identifies coregulated genes.
abstract: In this issue of Molecular Cell, Stewart-Ornstein et al. (2012) use systematic pair-wise correlation analysis of expression noise in a large number of yeast genes to identify clusters of functionally related genes and signaling pathways responsible for elevated noise.
