TFs are proteins that bind to a specific DNA sequence, i.e., the transcription factor binding site (TFBS). Whereas gene expression is influenced by epigenetic factors and/or transcription factor (TF) binding, protein synthesis can be regulated by microRNAs (miRNAs). Regulation of gene expression, protein synthesis and activity occurs at different levels. These processes contain genes, proteins and/or metabolites, their molecular interactions and reactions, but little regulatory information is present.
Many known biological processes are represented in various online repositories, like WikiPathways and Reactome. It still remains a challenge to combine the new insights with existing knowledge and to understand the regulation of biological processes in detail. Recently, the ENCODE project, whose main goal was to identify all the functional elements in the human genome sequence, revealed novel insights in genetic regulation. However, understanding of the regulation of gene expression, protein synthesis and activity is far from complete. Approximately 25,000 gene coding regions were defined.
