Accurate annotation of transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs) at genome scale represents an essential step to our understanding of gene regulation networks. In this talk, I will present our recent work on structure-based prediction of TFBSs using an integrative energy function. The new energy function combines a multi-body statistical potential and two atomic energy terms, hydrogen bond energy and \u03c0-interaction energy. This energy function was tested on a set of homeodomains, the second largest transcription factor family in mammals, as well as a non-redundant dataset consisting of transcription factors from different families. Our results show that this integrative energy function improves the prediction accuracy over the knowledge-based, statistical potentials.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jun-Tao Guo,\u00a0Department of\u00a0Bioinformatics and Genomics, University of North Carolina at Charlotte, Hosted by Jiancheng Jiang Title:\u00a0Structure-based prediction of transcription factor binding sites Abstract:\u00a0Transcription factors (TFs) regulate gene expression through binding to specific target DNA sites.
