Argo_Viewer: A Package for Recognition and Analysis of Regulatory Elements in Eukaryotic Genes

The task of reliable recognition of promoters in eukaryotic genomes has not been yet solved completely. This is largely due to poor understanding of the features of the structure-function organization of eukaryotic promoters essential for their function and recognition. Five groups of promoters of tissue-specific genes were analyzed and vocabularies of region-specific oligonucleotide motifs were constructed. We suggest a procedure to recognize tissue-specific gene promoters basing on the presence and distribution of certain oligonucleotide motifs.
