BASE

About:

BASE is a method to infer transcription factor activities by integrating microarray expression data and TF-gene binding (e.g. ChIP-chip) data.

Download:

WinBase: Program executable in Microsoft Windows system. The program is coded in C++ and complied with Visual Studio 6.0.

UnixBase: Program executable in UNIX system.

Readme: Description about format of input and output files for the above program.

Example microarrat data: An example microarray data which measured relative expression levels of yeast genes across cell cycle.

Exampe TF-gene affinity data: compiled TF-gene binding affinity data derived from ChIP-chip data from Richard Young's Lab.

run.bat: An example to show how to run the program.
