Abstract

Transcriptional Regulation Gets More Complicated: Sequence preferences of DNA binding proteins are a primary mechanism by which cells interpret the genome. A central goal in genome biology is to identify regulatory sequences in the genome; however, few proteins' DNA binding specificities have been characterized comprehensively. Badis et al. (p. 1720 , published online 14 May) studied 104 known and predicted transcription factors (TFs), spanning 22 structural classes, in the mouse genome. While traditional models of TF binding sites are based on a single collection of highly similar DNA sequences, binding profiles were represented better by multiple motifs. Roughly half of the TFs recognized distinct primary and secondary motifs that are different from each other. At least some of these interaction modes appeared to be attributable to biophysically distinct protein conformations, adding to the complexity of transcriptional regulation.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
