Modeling tissue-specific structural patterns in human and mouse promoters

Sets of genes expressed in the same tissue are believed to be under the regulation of a similar set of transcription factors, and can thus be assumed to contain similar structural patterns in their regulatory regions. Here we present a study of the structural patterns in promoters of genes expressed specifically in 26 human and 34 mouse tissues. For each tissue we constructed promoter structure...

DNA motifs in human and mouse proximal promoters predict tissue-specific expression.

Comprehensive identification of cis-regulatory elements is necessary for accurately reconstructing gene regulatory networks. We studied proximal promoters of human and mouse genes with differential expression across 56 terminally differentiated tissues. Using in silico techniques to discover, evaluate, and model interactions among sequence elements, we systematically identified regulatory modul...

Tissue-Specific and Ubiquitous Expression Patterns from Alternative Promoters of Human Genes

BACKGROUND Transcriptome diversity provides the key to cellular identity. One important contribution to expression diversity is the use of alternative promoters, which creates mRNA isoforms by expanding the choice of transcription initiation sites of a gene. The proximity of the basal promoter to the transcription initiation site enables prediction of a promoter's location based on the gene ann...

Tissue-specific regulatory elements in mammalian promoters

Transcription factor-binding sites and the cis-regulatory modules they compose are central determinants of gene expression. We previously showed that binding site motifs and modules in proximal promoters can be used to predict a significant portion of mammalian tissue-specific transcription. Here, we report on a systematic analysis of promoters controlling tissue-specific expression in heart, k...

Tissue Specific Promoters in Colorectal Cancer

Colorectal carcinoma is the third most prevalent cancer in the world. In the most advanced stages, the use of chemotherapy induces a poor response and is usually accompanied by other tissue damage. Significant progress based on suicide gene therapy has demonstrated that it may potentiate the classical cytotoxic effects in colorectal cancer. The inconvenience still rests with the targeting and t...
