SAFA: semi-automated footprinting analysis software for high-throughput quantification of nucleic acid footprinting experiments.
Footprinting is a powerful and widely used tool for characterizing the structure, thermodynamics, and kinetics of nucleic acid folding and ligand binding reactions. However, quantitative analysis of the gel images produced by footprinting experiments is tedious and time-consuming, due to the absence of informatics tools specifically designed for footprinting analysis. We have developed SAFA, a ...
متن کاملStructural changes and enhancements in DNase I footprinting experiments.
In footprinting experiments, an increase in DNA cleavage with addition of ligand to a system may be due to a ligand-induced structural change. Ligand binding also enhances cleavage by displacing the cleavage agent from ligand-binding sites, thus increasing its concentration elsewhere. The theory and characteristics of this mass-action enhancement are given, and it is shown how it may be recogni...
متن کاملDifferential Expression Analysis of Complex RNA-seq Experiments Using edgeR∗
This article reviews the statistical theory underlying the edgeR software package for differential expression of RNA-seq data. Negative binomial models are used to capture the quadratic mean-variance relationship that can be observed in RNA-seq data. Conditional likelihood methods are used to avoid bias when estimating the level of variation. Empirical Bayes methods are used to allow gene-speci...
متن کاملReal-time footprinting of DNA in the first kinetically significant intermediate in open complex formation by Escherichia coli RNA polymerase.
The architecture of cellular RNA polymerases (RNAPs) dictates that transcription can begin only after promoter DNA bends into a deep channel and the start site nucleotide (+1) binds in the active site located on the channel floor. Formation of this transcriptionally competent "open" complex (RP(o)) by Escherichia coli RNAP at the lambdaP(R) promoter is greatly accelerated by DNA upstream of bas...
متن کاملKinetics and mechanism of macrocyclic complex formation
Macrocyclic ligands form highly selective and kinetically labile complexes with a wide range of cations, including alkali metal and alkaline earth cations. Formation rate constants are high and remarkably insensitive to ligand structure, but decrease systematically with increasing charge density of the cation this behaviour is qualitatively similar to that expected for the dissociative intercha...
