PredCRP: predicting and analysing the regulatory roles of CRP from its binding sites in Escherichia coli

Abstract Cyclic AMP receptor protein (CRP), a global regulator in Escherichia coli, regulates more than 180 genes via two roles: activation and repression. Few methods are available for predicting the regulatory roles from the binding sites of transcription factors. This work proposes an accurate me...
