For the selected transcription factor and species, the list of curated binding sites
in the database are displayed below. Gene regulation diagrams show binding sites, positively-regulated genes,
negatively-regulated genes,
both positively and negatively regulated
genes, genes with unspecified type of
regulation.
This is a weak form of in-silico search, in which the consensus sequence for the motif is compared to genomic positions and the number of mismatches (between candidate site and consensus) is used as a measure of site-quality.
Quantitative Reverse-Transcription PCR is a modification of PCR in which RNA is first reverse transcribed into cDNA and this is amplified measuring the product (qPCR) in real time. It therefore allows one to analyze transcription by directly measuring the product (RNA) of a gene's transcription. If the gene is transcribed more, the starting product for PCR is larger and the corresponding volume of amplification is also larger.

In DNA affinity purification, DNA from promoter regions thought to be bound by the protein is labelled (e.g. biotinylated) and bound to beads (or some type of matrix). The protein is then left to interact with DNA and eventually eluted. Bound protein will remain attached to beads. This can be detected through gel electophoresis. The protein can then be sequenced by mass-spectrometry. The techinque can be used to demonstrate binding of a purified protein, or to purify the binding protein from crude extract or a mix of proteins.

Target-specific mutation, as opposed to non-specific mutation.
In the context of TF-binding sites, site-directed mutagenesis is typically used to establish/confirm the specific sequence and location of a site, often in tandem with EMSA.
Different positions of a putative binding site are mutated to non-consensus (or random) bases and binding to the mutated site is evaluated through EMSA or other means. Often implemented only in conserved motif positions or serially through all positions of a site.

All binding sites in split view are combined and a sequence logo is generated. Note that it
may contain binding site sequences from different transcription factors and different
species. To see individiual sequence logos and curation details go to split view.
