Title: DE NOVO PREDICTION OF CIS-REGULATORY MODULES IN EUKARYOTIC ORGANISMS
Author: Niu, Meng
Date Created: 2014
Description: Gene regulation networks (GRNs) are the bases for virtually all biological processes. To gain a global understanding of GRNs encoded in a genome, we first need to identify in all the cis-regulatory elements (CREs) recognized by transcription facto...
