Database: YEASTRACT

YEASTRACT (Yeast Search for Transcriptional Regulators And Consensus Tracking) is a curated repository of approximately 175.000 regulatory associations between transcription factors (TF) and target genes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, based on more than 1580 bibliographic references. It also includes the description of 310 specific DNA binding sites shared among 183 characterized TFs. Further information about each Yeast gene has been extracted from the Saccharomyces Genome Database (SGD) as per the latest release, from Mar 06, 2019. For each gene the associated Gene Ontology (GO) terms and their hierarchy in GO was obtained from the GO consortium as per the OBO flat file from Mar 19, 2019. Currently, YEASTRACT maintains a total of 69.043 terms from GO. The nucleotide sequences of the promoter and coding regions for Yeast genes were obtained from SGD. All the information in YEASTRACT is updated regularly to match the latest data from SGD, GO consortium, RSA Tools and recent literature on yeast regulatory networks.
