A survey of DNA motif finding algorithms
Background: Unraveling the mechanisms that regulate gene expression is a major challenge in biology. An important task in this challenge is to identify regulatory elements, especi...

Predicting combinatorial binding of transcription factors to regulatory elements in the human genome by association rule mining
Background: Cis-acting transcriptional regulatory elements in mammalian genomes typically contain specific combinations of binding sites for various transcription factors. Althoug...

Some statistical properties of regulatory DNA sequences, and their use in predicting regulatory regions in the Drosophila genome
Background: This paper addresses the problem of recognising DNA cis-regulatory modules which are located far from genes. Experimental procedures for this are slow and costly, and ...

Evaluation of phylogenetic footprint discovery for predicting bacterial cis-regulatory elements and revealing their evolution
Background: The detection of conserved motifs in promoters of orthologous genes (phylogenetic footprints) has become a common strategy to predict cis-acting regulatory elements. S...

A Transcriptional Approach to Gene Clustering
— We present an integrative method for clustering coregulated genes and elucidating their underlying regulatory mechanisms. We use multi-state partition functions and thermodynam...
