当真核基因被剪接体编辑时,内含子识别的第一步是将U1小核RNA与供体剪接位点结合。我们建立了这种相互作用的热力学模型,以确定剪接位点。应用于一组65个带注释的基因,我们的“结合发现”方法实现了真实位点和假位点的显著分离。分析结合模式使我们能够丢弃大量的诱饵位点。我们的研究结果改进了基于统计的供体位点识别方法,展示了物理建模在基因组中寻找功能元素的前景。
When eukaryotic genes are edited by the spliceosome, the first step in intron recognition is the binding of a U1 small nuclear RNA with the donorsplice site. We model this interaction thermodynamically to identify splice sites. Applied to a set of 65 annotated genes, our “finding with binding” method achieves a significant separation between real and false sites. Analyzing binding patterns allows us to discard a large number of decoy sites. Our results improve statistics-based methods for donor site recognition, demonstrating the promise of physical modeling to find functional elements in the genome.
