Identification of tissue-specific cis-regulatory modules based on interactions between transcription factors
Background: Evolutionary conservation has been used successfully to help identify cis-acting DNA regions that are important in regulating tissue-specific gene expression. Motivate...

Prediction of tissue-specific cis-regulatory modules using Bayesian networks and regression trees
Background: In vertebrates, a large part of gene transcriptional regulation is operated by cisregulatory modules. These modules are believed to be regulating much of the tissue-sp...

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...

Genome-wide prediction of transcriptional regulatory elements of human promoters using gene expression and promoter analysis dat
Background: A complete understanding of the regulatory mechanisms of gene expression is the next important issue of genomics. Many bioinformaticians have developed methods and alg...

CompMoby: Comparative MobyDick for detection of cis-regulatory motifs
Background: The regulation of gene expression is complex and occurs at many levels, including transcriptional and post-transcriptional, in metazoans. Transcriptional regulation is...
