Genomic identification of regulatory elements by evolutionary sequence comparison and functional analysis.
Despite remarkable recent advances in genomics that have enabled us to identify most of the genes in the human genome, comparable efforts to define transcriptional cis-regulatory elements that control gene expression are lagging behind. The difficulty of this task stems from two equally important problems: our knowledge of how regulatory elements are encoded in genomes remains elementary, and t...
متن کاملFinding cis-regulatory elements using comparative genomics: some lessons from ENCODE data.
Identification of functional genomic regions using interspecies comparison will be most effective when the full span of relationships between genomic function and evolutionary constraint are utilized. We find that sets of putative transcriptional regulatory sequences, defined by ENCODE experimental data, have a wide span of evolutionary histories, ranging from stringent constraint shown by deep...
متن کاملDeciphering transcriptional regulatory elements that encode specific cell cycle phasing by comparative genomics analysis.
Transcriptional regulation is a major tier in the periodic engine that mobilizes cell cycle progression. The availability of complete genome sequences of multiple organisms holds promise for significantly improving the specificity of computational identification of functional elements. Here, we applied a comparative genomics analysis to decipher transcriptional regulatory elements that control ...
متن کاملComputational identification of transcriptional regulatory elements in DNA sequence
Identification and annotation of all the functional elements in the genome, including genes and the regulatory sequences, is a fundamental challenge in genomics and computational biology. Since regulatory elements are frequently short and variable, their identification and discovery using computational algorithms is difficult. However, significant advances have been made in the computational me...
متن کاملEnhancer identification through comparative genomics.
With the availability of genomic sequence from numerous vertebrates, a paradigm shift has occurred in the identification of distant-acting gene regulatory elements. In contrast to traditional gene-centric studies in which investigators randomly scanned genomic fragments that flank genes of interest in functional assays, the modern approach begins electronically with publicly available comparati...
