Genome-wide CAGE studies reveal that a large fraction of TSS exhibit peaks where the vast majority of associated tags map to a particular location ( approximately 45%), whereas other active regions contain a broader distribution of initiation events. The presence of a strong single peak suggests that transcription at these locations may be mediated by position-specific sequence features. We therefore propose a new model for single-peaked TSS based solely on known transcription factors (TFs) and their respective regions of positional enrichment. This probabilistic model leads to near-perfect classification results in cross-validation (auROC = 0.98), and performance in genomic scans demonstrates that TSS prediction with both high accuracy and spatial resolution is achievable for a specific but large subgroup of mammalian promoters. The interpretable model structure suggests a DNA code in which canonical sequence features such as TATA-box, Initiator, and GC content do play a significant role, but many additional TFs show distinct spatial biases with respect to TSS location and are important contributors to the accurate prediction of single-peak transcription initiation sites. The model structure also reveals that CAGE tag clusters distal from annotated gene starts have distinct characteristics compared to those close to gene 5&amp;#39;-ends. Using this high-resolution single-peak model, we predict TSS for approximately 70% of mammalian microRNAs based on currently available data.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://megraw-dev.cgrb.oregonstate.edu/node/715&quot;&gt;[Links to Tools and Supplementary Materials]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Megraw, Molly</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Baev, Vesselin</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rusinov, Ventsislav</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jensen, Shane T</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kalantidis, Kriton</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hatzigeorgiou, Artemis G</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">MicroRNA promoter element discovery in Arabidopsis.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">RNA</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">RNA</style></alt-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Arabidopsis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Base Sequence</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Binding Sites</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Databases, Genetic</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Feedback, Physiological</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genes, Plant</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">MicroRNAs</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Promoter Regions, Genetic</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">TATA Box</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Transcription Factors</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Transcription Initiation Site</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2006</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2006 Sep</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">12</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1612-9</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;In this study we present a method of identifying Arabidopsis miRNA promoter elements using known transcription factor binding motifs. We provide a comparative analysis of the representation of these elements in miRNA promoters, protein-coding gene promoters, and random genomic sequences. We report five transcription factor (TF) binding motifs that show evidence of overrepresentation in miRNA promoter regions relative to the promoter regions of protein-coding genes. This investigation is based on the analysis of 800-nucleotide regions upstream of 63 experimentally verified Transcription Start Sites (TSS) for miRNA primary transcripts in Arabidopsis. While the TATA-box binding motif was also previously reported by Xie and colleagues, the transcription factors AtMYC2, ARF, SORLREP3, and LFY are identified for the first time as overrepresented binding motifs in miRNA promoters.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9</style></issue></record></records></xml>
