Conservation of DNA regulatory motifs and discovery of new motifs in microbial genomes.
Regulatory motifs can be found by local multiple alignment of upstream regions from coregulated sets of genes, or regulons. We searched for regulatory motifs using the program AlignACE together with a set of filters that helped us choose the motifs most likely to be biologically relevant in 17 complete microbial genomes. We searched the upstream regions of potentially coregulated genes grouped ...
متن کاملDiscovery of Stress Responsive DNA Regulatory Motifs in Arabidopsis
The discovery of DNA regulatory motifs in the sequenced genomes using computational methods remains challenging. Here, we present MotifIndexer--a comprehensive strategy for de novo identification of DNA regulatory motifs at a genome level. Using word-counting methods, we indexed the existence of every 8-mer oligo composed of bases A, C, G, T, r, y, s, w, m, k, n or 12-mer oligo composed of A, C...
متن کاملComprehensive discovery of DNA motifs in 349 human cells and tissues reveals new features of motifs
Comprehensive motif discovery under experimental conditions is critical for the global understanding of gene regulation. To generate a nearly complete list of human DNA motifs under given conditions, we employed a novel approach to de novo discover significant co-occurring DNA motifs in 349 human DNase I hypersensitive site datasets. We predicted 845 to 1325 motifs in each dataset, for a total ...
متن کاملFinding regulatory DNA motifs using alignment-free evolutionary conservation information
As an increasing number of eukaryotic genomes are being sequenced, comparative studies aimed at detecting regulatory elements in intergenic sequences are becoming more prevalent. Most comparative methods for transcription factor (TF) binding site discovery make use of global or local alignments of orthologous regulatory regions to assess whether a particular DNA site is conserved across related...
متن کاملComputational Discovery of Gene Regulatory Binding Motifs: A Bayesian Perspective
The Bayesian approach together with Markov chain Monte Carlo techniques has provided an attractive solution to many important bioinformatics problems such as multiple sequence alignment, microarray analysis and the discovery of gene regulatory binding motifs. The employment of such methods and, more broadly, explicit statistical modeling, has revolutionized the field of computational biology. A...
