CEAS 1.0.2 – Cis-regulatory Element Annotation System

CEAS 1.0.2

:: DESCRIPTION

CEAS (Cis-regulatory Element Annotation System) is a standalone Python package for analyzing ChIP-chip/seq data. The tool was designed to characterize genome-wide protein-DNA interaction patterns from ChIP-chip and ChIP-Seq of both sharp and broad binding factors. As a stand-alone extension of our web application CEAS , it provides statistics on ChIP enrichment at important genome features such as specific chromosome, promoters, gene bodies, or exons, and infers genes most likely to be regulated by a binding factor. CEAS also enables biologists to visualize the average ChIP enrichment signals over specific genomic features, allowing continuous and broad ChIP enrichment to be perceived which might be too subtle to detect from ChIP peaks alone.

StructRED – Structural Cis-Regulatory Element Detector

StructRED

:: DESCRIPTION

StructRED (Structural Cis-Regulatory Element Detector) is an alignment-free algorithm that discovers secondary structure-defined cis-regulatory elements in mRNAs by modeling the effects that their occurrences exert on quantitative measurements of mRNA behavior in the form of microarray data.

JPREdictor 1.23 – Predict Cis-regulatory Elements

JPREdictor 1.23

:: DESCRIPTION

jPREdictor is a tool for the prediction of cis-regulatory elements, e.g. PRE/TREs in Drosophila melanogaster. Short sequence fragments, namely transcription factor binding sites, are known to be enriched and clustered in such elements. These binding sites are represented as motifs and for the prediction, they must be known. Using these motifs, it is possible to search them on sequences, to weight them by applying a positive or negative training set (model or background, respectively) and to score a sequence.

Cistematic 3.0 – Platform for Cis-regulatory Element Analysis

Cistematic 3.0

:: DESCRIPTION

Cistematic is a Python package with a rich set of API’s that simplify the collection and analysis of candidate cis-regulatory elements from a number of different motif-finding programs such as Meme, and cisGreedy (built-in). Cistematic assesses the significance of each motif by comparing it to its prevalence genome-wide.

creto 1.0 – Determination of Cis-Regulatory Element Turn-Over rates

creto 1.0

:: DESCRIPTION

creto (Cis-Regulatory Element Turn-Over) is a program for the determination of the evolutionary origination and decay rates of transcription factor binding sites. Given a phylogenetic tree and the binding site numbers of the species at the tips, creto uses a maximum likelihood model that permits variable turnover rates in different parts of the species tree. This model can be used to detect changes in turnover rate as a proxy for differences in the selective pressures acting on TFBS in different clades.
