Some functional proteins undergo conformational changes to expose hidden binding sites when a binding molecule approaches their surface. Such binding sites are called cryptic sites and are important targets for drug discovery. However, it is still di...
The DNA binding of most Escherichia coli Transcription Factors (TFs) has not been comprehensively mapped, and few have models that can quantitatively predict binding affinity. We report the global mapping of in vivo DNA binding for 139 E. coli TFs us...
BACKGROUND: Predicting protein-DNA binding sites in vivo is a challenging but urgent task in many fields such as drug design and development. Most promoters contain many transcription factor (TF) binding sites, yet only a few have been identified thr...
Understanding how genetic variation impacts transcription factor (TF) binding remains a major challenge, limiting our ability to model disease-associated variants. Here, we used a highly controlled system of F crosses with extensive genetic diversity...
