FABIAN – Predicting the impact of DNA variants on transcription factor binding

FABIAN

:: DESCRIPTION

FABIAN supports more than 1,000 different binding models for 247 human transcription factors. The models were pooled from various publicly accessible data sources, such as CIS-BPHocomocohPDIJASPAR and Jolma (2013). 103 transcription factor flexible models (TFFMs) are included. For each binding model, FABIAN constructs a Bayes classifier and reports the likelihood that a variant leads to the gain or loss of a transcription factor binding site. Because of the poor performance of several binding models in detecting experimentally verified sites, a negative or positive predictive value is reported.
