Inference of transcription modification in long-live yeast strains from their expression profiles

Abstract

Combining microarray expression data with other data sources such as motif and ChIP-chip data provides biological insights into the transcription modification that leads to life span extension. In the chronologically long-lived mutant: sch9Delta, ras2Delta, and tor1Delta, several common stress response transcription factors are activated compared with the wild type according to our systematic transcription inference.
