Genome-scale study of the importance of binding site context for transcription factor binding and gene regulation
Background: The rate of mRNA transcription is controlled by transcription factors that bind to specific DNA motifs in promoter regions upstream of protein coding genes. Recent res...

Studying the functional conservation of cis-regulatory modules and their transcriptional output
Background: Cis-regulatory modules (CRMs) are distinct, genomic regions surrounding the target gene that can independently activate the promoter to drive transcription. The activa...
