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...

WeederH: an algorithm for finding conserved regulatory motifs and regions in homologous sequences
Background: This work addresses the problem of detecting conserved transcription factor binding sites and in general regulatory regions through the analysis of sequences from homo...

The complexity of gene expression dynamics revealed by permutation entropy
Background: High complexity is considered a hallmark of living systems. Here we investigate the complexity of temporal gene expression patterns using the concept of Permutation En...

Uncovering mechanisms of transcriptional regulations by systematic mining of cis regulatory elements with gene expression profil
Background: Contrary to the traditional biology approach, where the expression patterns of a handful of genes are studied at a time, microarray experiments enable biologists to st...
