TFBS: Computational framework for transcription factor binding site analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
MOTIVATION TFBS is a set of integrated, object-oriented Perl modules for transcription factor binding site detection and analysis. It implements objects representing specificity profile matrices, binding sites and sets thereof, pattern generators, and pattern database interfaces. The modules are interoperable with the BioPerl open source system. AVAILABILITY AND SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION The module package with documentation and example scripts are available at http://forkhead.cgb.ki.se/TFBS/

Genomic Promoter Analysis Predicts Functional Transcription Factor Binding
Background. The computational identification of functional transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs) remains a major challenge of computational biology. Results. We have analyzed the conserved promoter sequences for the complete set of human RefSeq genes using our conserved transcription factor binding site (CONFAC) software. CONFAC identified 16296 human-mouse ortholog gene pairs, and of thos...
متن کاملPrediction of regulatory SNPs influencing Gene expression on Chromosome 5q31-33
Transcription regulation is one of the most basic regulatory mechanisms in the cell. It is controlled by transcription factors which binds on a specific sequence called transcription factor binding site(TFBS). In the field of gene expression regulation, researches on TFBS binding TF have been actively going on. Searching methods for TFBS frequently use position-specific frequency matrices for b...
متن کاملHOCOMOCO: a comprehensive collection of human transcription factor binding sites models
Transcription factor (TF) binding site (TFBS) models are crucial for computational reconstruction of transcription regulatory networks. In existing repositories, a TF often has several models (also called binding profiles or motifs), obtained from different experimental data. Having a single TFBS model for a TF is more pragmatic for practical applications. We show that integration of TFBS data ...
متن کاملOccupancy Classification of Position Weight Matrix-Inferred Transcription Factor Binding Sites
BACKGROUND Computational prediction of Transcription Factor Binding Sites (TFBS) from sequence data alone is difficult and error-prone. Machine learning techniques utilizing additional environmental information about a predicted binding site (such as distances from the site to particular chromatin features) to determine its occupancy/functionality class show promise as methods to achieve more a...
متن کاملAssessing transcription factor motif drift from noisy decoy sequences.
Genome scale identification of transcription factor binding sites (TFBS) is fundamental to understanding the complexities of mRNA expression at both the cell and organismal levels. While high-throughput experimental methods provide associations between transcription factors and the genes they regulate under a specified experimental condition, computational methods are still required to pinpoint...
