| Research Abstract |
Context dependencies of transcriptional activations among multiple transcription factors are important to understand the mechanisms of complex transcriptional regulations. Computational identifications of binding sites of transcription factors and computational analyses of cis-elements in promoter regions have been investigated to model cooperative binding activities of multiple transcription factors. We propose a novel discriminative detection method for precisely identifying transcription factor binding sites and their functional variants from both positive and negative samples. Our genome-wide experimental results on yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae show that our method has presented significant performances for detecting experimentally verified consensus sequences compared with the existing motif detecting methods.
In addition, we use protein-protein interaction data to infer synergistic binding of cooperative transcription factors. Our fundamental idea is based on the assumption that genes contributing to a similar biological process are regulated under the same control mechanism. Our computational experiments in yeast show that predictions made by our method have successfully identified eight pairs of cooperative transcription factors that have literature evidences but could not be identified by the previous method.
