Nucleotide Interdependency in Transcription Factor Binding Sites in the Drosophila Genome
A long-standing objective in modern biology is to characterize the molecular components that drive the development of an organism. At the heart of eukaryotic development lies gene regulation. On the molecular level, much of the research in this field has focused on the binding of transcription factors (TFs) to regulatory regions in the genome known as cis-regulatory modules (CRMs). However, rel...
متن کاملGenome-Wide Identification of Transcription Start Sites, Promoters and Transcription Factor Binding Sites in E. coli
Despite almost 40 years of molecular genetics research in Escherichia coli a major fraction of its Transcription Start Sites (TSSs) are still unknown, limiting therefore our understanding of the regulatory circuits that control gene expression in this model organism. RegulonDB (http://regulondb.ccg.unam.mx/) is aimed at integrating the genetic regulatory network of E. coli K12 as an entirely bi...
متن کاملDrosophila DNase I footprint database: a systematic genome annotation of transcription factor binding sites in the fruitfly, Drosophila melanogaster
UNLABELLED Despite increasing numbers of computational tools developed to predict cis-regulatory sequences, the availability of high-quality datasets of transcription factor binding sites limits advances in the bioinformatics of gene regulation. Here we present such a dataset based on a systematic literature curation and genome annotation of DNase I footprints for the fruitfly, Drosophila melan...
متن کاملInformation Content in Transcription Factor Binding Sites
The application of Information Theory to the analysis of genomic sequences and, specifically, transcription factor binding sites, is one of the most successful attempts at modeling the behavior and evolution of these genomic elements. As such, information theory models lie at the core of many transcription factor binding site search and motif discovery tools, such as the widely used Virtual Foo...
متن کاملGenome-wide identification of transcription factors and transcription-factor binding sites in oleaginous microalgae Nannochloropsis
Nannochloropsis spp. are a group of oleaginous microalgae that harbor an expanded array of lipid-synthesis related genes, yet how they are transcriptionally regulated remains unknown. Here a phylogenomic approach was employed to identify and functionally annotate the transcriptional factors (TFs) and TF binding-sites (TFBSs) in N. oceanica IMET1. Among 36 microalgae and higher plants genomes, a...
