酿酒酵母启动子区中与调控元件相关的统计显著性串

Statistically Significant Strings are Related to Regulatory Elements in the Promoter Regions of Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Rui Hu, Bin Wang

摘要:

在DNA和蛋白质序列中找出统计学上有意义的单词是许多遗传学研究的基础。应用最大熵原理,我们给出了一种系统的方法来研究DNA或蛋白质序列中字的非随机出现。通过与实验结果的比较,表明在酿酒酵母(酵母)基因组中的调控结合位点的模式往往发生显着的启动子区域。我们研究了酵母菌的两个相关基因家族。该方法成功地提取了结合位点在每个家庭的实验验证。许多推定的调控位点的上游地区提出。该研究还表明,一些调控位点在两个方向上都是活性的,而另一些则表现出方向偏好。

英文摘要:

Finding out statistically significant words in DNA and protein sequences forms the basis for many genetic studies. By applying the maximal entropy principle, we give one systematic way to study the nonrandom occurrence of words in DNA or protein sequences. Through comparison with experimental results, it was shown that patterns of regulatory binding sites in Saccharomyces cerevisiae(yeast) genomes tend to occur significantly in the promoter regions. We studied two correlated gene family of yeast. The method successfully extracts the binding sites varified by experiments in each family. Many putative regulatory sites in the upstream regions are proposed. The study also suggested that some regulatory sites are a ctive in both directions, while others show directional preference.
