Abstract:Transcription factors (TFs) regulate gene expression by specifically binding to DNA targets. Many factors have been revealed to influence TF-DNA binding specificity. Coevolution of residues in proteins occurs due to a common evolutionary history. However, it is unclear how coevolving residues in TFs contribute to DNA binding specificity. Here, we systematically analyzed TF-DNA interactions from high-throughput experiments for seven TF families, including Homeobox, HLH, bZIP_1, Ets, HMG_box, zf-C4 and Zn_clus T… Show more
