Bioinformatics Workshop Series 2011-2012

Eukaryotic Promoter Prediction Workshop

In this workshop we will cover the basics of computational promoter prediction, including:

• a definition of promoters and promoter elements
• a description of the problem from a computational point of view
• methods and tools available

Time permitting working on groups of genes will also be discussed

Among the tools to be demonstrated are the UCSC Genome Browser for definition of upstream regions, and the promoter related tracks, and the Genomatix Genome Analyzer for binding site analysis.

Where: Levine building, Computer Room
When: January 30, 2012, 09:00 - 13:00
