Identifying regulatory targets of cell cycle transcription factors using gene expression and ChIP-chip data
Background: ChIP-chip data, which indicate binding of transcription factors (TFs) to DNA regions in vivo, are widely used to reconstruct transcriptional regulatory networks. Howev...

Fast-Find: A novel computational approach to analyzing combinatorial motifs
Background: Many vital biological processes, including transcription and splicing, require a combination of short, degenerate sequence patterns, or motifs, adjacent to defined seq...

Bioinformatic identification of novel putative photoreceptor specific cis-elements
Background: Cell specific gene expression is largely regulated by different combinations of transcription factors that bind cis-elements in the upstream promoter sequence. However...

Scanning sequences after Gibbs sampling to find multiple occurrences of functional elements
Background: Many DNA regulatory elements occur as multiple instances within a target promoter. Gibbs sampling programs for finding DNA regulatory elements de novo can be prohibiti...

A systematic approach to detecting transcription factors in response to environmental stresses
Background: Eukaryotic cells have developed mechanisms to respond to external environmental or physiological changes (stresses). In order to increase the activities of stress-prot...
