  2. What is Cis-element Latin word “cis” means "on the same side as" Coureyand Jia (2001) A cis-regulatory element or cis-element is a region of DNA or RNA that regulates the expression of genes located on that same molecule of DNA

  3. Cis-element properties • Typically found in 5’ untranscribed region of the gene (promoter region) • Can be specific sites for binding of activators or repressors • Position and orientation of cis-element relative to transcriptional start site is usually fixed

  4. Cis-element properties • Short sequences • Recurring patterns • Sequence-specific binding sites

  5. Cis-element Representations Sequence 1: Sequence 2: Sequence 3: Sequence 4: Sequence 5: A G T A T A A G A T T A C G A C T C A G T G T A A G T G T G Consensus sequence: A G W N T A Probability Matrix & sequence logo:

  6. Cis-element Representation 1 • Consensus based method • Refer to a sequence that matches all examples of the binding site closely but not exactly • Trade-off between ambiguity and sensitivity IUPAC codes

  7. Cis-element Representation 2 • Sequence logos • A visual representation of the probability matrix • The total height of each column is proportional to its information content http://www-lmmb.ncifcrf.gov/~toms/sequencelogo.html

  8. Cis-element matching/discovery • Pattern Matching • Discovery patterns in sequences from co-regulated genes using JASPAR and TRANSFAC matrices • Pscan • Pattern Discovery • Discovery patterns in sequences from co-regulated genes without using known patterns • MEME, hmmbuild

  14. Large Scale Analysis • Identify 264 co-regulated gene groups in S. serevisiae • Putative cis-regulatory elements • 80 known consensus binding sites • 597 elements by motif discovery with MEME • Score enrichment of genes containing each putative element- 42 cis-elements in 35 unique groups • Orthologous modules in other species • Enrichment of orthologous modules A.

  16. Positions of binding sites • Non random distribution • Similar across species • No correlations in locations across species

  17. Spacing between binding sitesin Methionine Biosynthesis genes • Small distance between Cbf1p and Met31/32p • Conserved across species • Independent of exact positions
