A comprehensive resource of interacting protein regions for refining human transcription factor networks.

PloS one | 2010

Large-scale data sets of protein-protein interactions (PPIs) are a valuable resource for mapping and analysis of the topological and dynamic features of interactome networks. The currently available large-scale PPI data sets only contain information on interaction partners. The data presented in this study also include the sequences involved in the interactions (i.e., the interacting regions, IRs) suggested to correspond to functional and structural domains. Here we present the first large-scale IR data set obtained using mRNA display for 50 human transcription factors (TFs), including 12 transcription-related proteins. The core data set (966 IRs; 943 PPIs) displays a verification rate of 70%. Analysis of the IR data set revealed the existence of IRs that interact with multiple partners. Furthermore, these IRs were preferentially associated with intrinsic disorder. This finding supports the hypothesis that intrinsically disordered regions play a major role in the dynamics and diversity of TF networks through their ability to structurally adapt to and bind with multiple partners. Accordingly, this domain-based interaction resource represents an important step in refining protein interactions and networks at the domain level and in associating network analysis with biological structure and function.

Genome Network Platform (tool)

RRID:SCR_001737

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 23,2022. Integrated database of experiment data generated by participating research institutes and public databases relating to: 1) transcription starting position of human genes in the human genome, 2) conjunction to control region on transcriptional factors and the human genome 3) protein-protein interaction with a central focus on transcription factors organized for use in genome level research. Gene Search is the function to search the integrated database by using keywords and public IDs. The search results can be visualized by: * Genome Explorer : provides annotation of landmarks (genes, transcription start sites, etc.) aligned in accordance with their genome locations. * PPI Network : provides a graphical view of protein-protein interaction (PPI) network from the experimental data generated under the project and the public datasets. * Expression Profile : clusters genes by expression pattern and display the result with heatmap. The function provides genes which have relation of coregulation and anti-coregulation. * Comparison Viewer : This function gives the view to compare the genomic regions between human and mouse homologous genes. The viewer shows the distribution of transcription start sites (TSS) as the way of separable by tissues or time points with other landmarks on genome region. * Gene Stock : This is the function to save the gene list that you are interested until the session is closed.

Gene Ontology (tool)

RRID:SCR_002811

Computable knowledge regarding functions of genes and gene products. GO resources include biomedical ontologies that cover molecular domains of all life forms as well as extensive compilations of gene product annotations to these ontologies that provide largely species-neutral, comprehensive statements about what gene products do. Used to standardize representation of gene and gene product attributes across species and databases.

Pfam (tool)

RRID:SCR_004726

A database of protein families, each represented by multiple sequence alignments and hidden Markov models (HMMs). Users can analyze protein sequences for Pfam matches, view Pfam family annotation and alignments, see groups of related families, look at the domain organization of a protein sequence, find the domains on a PDB structure, and query Pfam by keywords. There are two components to Pfam: Pfam-A and Pfam-B. Pfam-A entries are high quality, manually curated families that may automatically generate a supplement using the ADDA database. These automatically generated entries are called Pfam-B. Although of lower quality, Pfam-B families can be useful for identifying functionally conserved regions when no Pfam-A entries are found. Pfam also generates higher-level groupings of related families, known as clans (collections of Pfam-A entries which are related by similarity of sequence, structure or profile-HMM).
