What you can do:

Find information about promoter features in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Highlights:

YPA is a database which aims to collect comprehensive promoter features in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
It integrates nine kinds of promoter features including promoter sequences, genes' transcription boundaries-transcription start sites (TSSs), five prime untranslated regions (5'-UTRs) and three prime untranslated regions (3'UTRs), TATA boxes, transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs), nucleosome occupancy, DNA bendability, transcription factor (TF) binding, TF knockout expression and TF-TF physical interaction.
YPA is designed to present data in a unified manner as many important observations are revealed only when these promoter features are considered altogether.
Integrating nucleosome occupancy, DNA bendability, TF binding, TF knockout expression and TFBS data helps to identify which TFBS is actually functional.
Various promoter features can be accessed in a centralized and organized platform.
Researchers can easily view if the TFBSs in an interested promoter are occupied by nucleosomes or located in a rigid DNA segment and know if the expression of the downstream gene responds to the knockout of the corresponding TFs.
