Identifying synonymous regulatory elements in vertebrate genomes
Synonymous gene regulation, defined by regulatory elements driving shared temporal and/or spatial aspects of gene expression, is most probably predicated on genomic elements that contain similar modules of certain transcription factor binding sites (TFBS). We have developed a method to scan vertebrate genomes for evolutionary conserved modules of TFBS in a predefined configuration, and created ...
متن کاملIdentifying regulatory elements in eukaryotic genomes.
Proper development and functioning of an organism depends on precise spatial and temporal expression of all its genes. These coordinated expression-patterns are maintained primarily through the process of transcriptional regulation. Transcriptional regulation is mediated by proteins binding to regulatory elements on the DNA in a combinatorial manner, where particular combinations of transcripti...
متن کاملUltra-Conserved Elements in Vertebrate and Fly Genomes
Our analyses of ultra-conserved elements are based on multiple sequence alignments produced by MAVID [Bray and Pachter, 2004]. Prior to the alignment of multiple genomes, homology mappings (from Mercator [Dewey, 2005]) group into bins genomic regions that are anchored together by neighboring homologous exons. A multiple sequence alignment is then produced for each of these alignment bins. MAVID...
متن کاملEvolutionarily conserved elements in vertebrate, insect, worm, and yeast genomes.
We have conducted a comprehensive search for conserved elements in vertebrate genomes, using genome-wide multiple alignments of five vertebrate species (human, mouse, rat, chicken, and Fugu rubripes). Parallel searches have been performed with multiple alignments of four insect species (three species of Drosophila and Anopheles gambiae), two species of Caenorhabditis, and seven species of Sacch...
متن کاملIdentifying Transcription Regulatory Elements in the Human and Mouse Genomes Using Tissue-specific Gene Expression Profiles
Revealing the complex interaction between transand cis-regulatory elements and identifying these potential binding sites are fundamental problems in understanding gene expression. The progresses in ChIP-chip technology facilitate identifying DNA sequences that are recognized by a specific transcription factor. However, protein-DNA binding is a necessary, but not sufficient, condition for transc...
