promoter search - (Jun/02/2006 )

Pages: Previous 1 2 

I got another question. Once I found the promoter region (putative), how to know which transcription factors bind to that region?

Any help? Thanks a lot!

Hi alruiz,

some time ago I use the Promter Scan algorithm of Dr. Dan Presitge which is based on scoring homologies with putative eukaryotic Pol II promoter sequences.
Promoter Scan: http://bimas.dcrt.nih.gov/molbio/proscan/

But there are also other tools:
Promoter Prediction Server: http://www.cbs.dtu.dk/services/Promoter/
Dragon Prediction Server: http://research.i2r.a-star.edu.sg/promoter...oter1_5/DPF.htm
