Gene Regulation

This view displays species-specific regulatory feature information if available. For human this includes so-called regulatory features from the Ensembl Regulatory Build, which represent a single best guess of regulatory elements and annotations based on statistically significant association with genomics features.

Various externally curated data sets are imported and displayed for human, such as the cisRED motifs, miRanda microRNA target features from miRBase targets and the VISTA enhancer set. Some sets are also available for Mouse. Drosphila shows only regulatory elements from REDfly.

Data sets can also be displayed in a genomic context by using the Region in Detail view, or mined from the functional genomics database using our API.
