BCRANK: predicting binding site consensus from ranked DNA sequences
نویسنده
چکیده
This document describes the BCRANK R package. BCRANK[1] is a method that takes a ranked list of genomic regions as input and outputs short DNA sequences that are overrepresented in some part of the list. The algorithm was developed for detecting transcription factor (TF) binding sites in a large number of enriched regions from high-throughput ChIP-chip or ChIP-seq experiments, but it can be applied to any ranked list of DNA sequences.

Identification of candidate regulatory SNPs by combination of transcription-factor-binding site prediction, SNP genotyping and haploChIP
UNLABELLED Disease-associated SNPs detected in large-scale association studies are frequently located in non-coding genomic regions, suggesting that they may be involved in transcriptional regulation. Here we describe a new strategy for detecting regulatory SNPs (rSNPs), by combining computational and experimental approaches. Whole genome ChIP-chip data for USF1 was analyzed using a novel motif...
متن کاملIdentification of consensus patterns in unaligned DNA sequences known to be functionally related
We have developed a method for identifying consensus patterns in a set of unaligned DNA sequences known to bind a common protein or to have some other common biochemical function. The method is based on a matrix representation of binding site patterns. Each row of the matrix represents one of the four possible bases, each column represents one of the positions of the binding site and each eleme...
متن کاملCyclic amplification and selection of targets (CASTing) for the myogenin consensus binding site.
The consensus binding site for the muscle regulatory factor myogenin was determined from an unbiased set of degenerate oligonucleotides using CASTing (cyclic amplification and selection of targets). Stretches of totally random sequence flanked by polymerase chain reaction priming sequences were mixed with purified myogenin or myotube nuclear extracts, DNA-protein complexes were immunoprecipitat...
متن کاملHalf-Site DNA sequence and spacing length contributions to PrrA binding to PrrA site 2 of RSP3361 in Rhodobacter sphaeroides 2.4.1.
The consensus DNA binding sequence for PrrA, a global regulator in Rhodobacter sphaeroides 2.4.1, is poorly defined. We have performed mutational analysis of PrrA site 2, of the RSP3361 gene, to which PrrA binds in vitro (J. M. Eraso and S. Kaplan, J. Bacteriol. 191:4341-4352, 2009), to further define the consensus sequence for DNA binding. Two half-sites of equal length, containing 6 nucleotid...
متن کاملClustering of DNA sequences in human promoters.
We have determined the distribution of each of the 65,536 DNA sequences that are eight bases long (8-mer) in a set of 13,010 human genomic promoter sequences aligned relative to the putative transcription start site (TSS). A limited number of 8-mers have peaks in their distribution (cluster), and most cluster within 100 bp of the TSS. The 156 DNA sequences exhibiting the greatest statistically ...
