Abstract:Gene expression in different cells is regulated by different sets of transcription factors. How the combinations of transcription factors required to achieve specificity of expression are encoded by regulatory regions of DNA is a long-standing problem in biology. In the model system C. elegans, gene regulatory regions are relatively compact, and much work has been done to describe gene expression patterns in a number of cell types. In this work, we collected the promoter regions of genes with known expression … Show more
