Zinc Finger Tools: custom DNA-binding domains for transcription factors and nucleases
Individual zinc finger (ZF) domains that recognize DNA triplets with high specificity and affinity can be used to create designer transcription factors and nucleases that are spec...

fREDUCE: Detection of degenerate regulatory elements using correlation with expression
Background: The precision of transcriptional regulation is made possible by the specificity of physical interactions between transcription factors and their cognate binding sites ...

An intuitionistic approach to scoring DNA sequences against transcription factor binding site motifs
Background: Transcription factors (TFs) control transcription by binding to specific regions of DNA called transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs). The identification of TFBSs ...

Finding sequence motifs with Bayesian models incorporating positional information: an application to transcription factor bindin
Background: Biologically active sequence motifs often have positional preferences with respect to a genomic landmark. For example, many known transcription factor binding sites (T...

Systematic identification of yeast cell cycle transcription factors using multiple data sources
Background: Eukaryotic cell cycle is a complex process and is precisely regulated at many levels. Many genes specific to the cell cycle are regulated transcriptionally and are exp...
