BLSSpeller: exhaustive comparative discovery of conserved cis-regulatory elements
MOTIVATION The accurate discovery and annotation of regulatory elements remains a challenging problem. The growing number of sequenced genomes creates new opportunities for comparative approaches to motif discovery. Putative binding sites are then considered to be functional if they are conserved in orthologous promoter sequences of multiple related species. Existing methods for comparative mot...

متن کاملComparative Genomics of Regulatory Sequence Elements
Transcription factor binding sites can be predicted by searching for recurring motifs in the regulatory regions of co-expressed genes. In yeast this approach is feasible at a genome-wide scale. In contrast to vertebrates, however, intergenic regions are very short in yeast. A simple search for exact string matches of experimentally verified binding sides thus leads to an large number of false p...
متن کاملComparative genomics allows the discovery of cis-regulatory elements in mosquitoes.
The discovery and mapping of cis-regulatory elements is important for understanding regulation of gene transcription in mosquito vectors of human diseases. Genome sequence data are available for 3 species, Aedes aegypti, Anopheles gambiae, and Culex quinquefasciatus (Diptera: Culicidae), representing 2 subfamilies (Culicinae and Anophelinae) that are estimated to have diverged 145 to 200 millio...
متن کاملDiscovery and Analysis of Evolutionarily Conserved Intronic Splicing Regulatory Elements
Knowledge of the functional cis-regulatory elements that regulate constitutive and alternative pre-mRNA splicing is fundamental for biology and medicine. Here we undertook a genome-wide comparative genomics approach using available mammalian genomes to identify conserved intronic splicing regulatory elements (ISREs). Our approach yielded 314 ISREs, and insertions of ~70 ISREs between competing ...
