APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR DETECTING TRANSCRIPTIONAL REGULATION USING TRANSCRIPTIONAL FACTOR

摘要

An apparatus for detecting transcriptional regulation between genes is provided to improve accuracy of detection by using transcriptional factors which is biologically present between genes, form a network of biological information by predicting the transcriptional regulation between genes, and obtain various transcriptional regulations between genes through the network or map. An apparatus for detecting transcriptional regulation between genes comprises: a storage unit for storing regulator gene, at least one transcriptional factor corresponding to the regulator gene, and a profile(sequence information) of the transcriptional factor; an input unit(13) for inputting the information of a first gene and a second gene; search units(14,15) for searching the profile of the first gene information inputted in the storage unit; and a transcriptional regulation-detecting unit(16) for detecting transcriptional regulation of the first gene and second gene by performing the local sequence alignment by using the searched transcriptional factor profile and the nucleic acid sequence of the second gene.
