EMQIT: a machine learning approach for energy based PWM matrix quality improvement

Abstract Background Transcription factor binding affinities to DNA play a key role for the gene regulation. Learning the specificity of the mechanisms of binding TFs to DNA is important both to experimentalists and theoreticians. With the development of high-throughput methods such as, e.g., ChiP-se...
