MOTIVATION: A new approach to the prediction of eukaryotic PolII promoters
from DNA sequence takes advantage of a combination of elements similar to
neural networks and genetic algorithms to recognize a set of discrete
subpatterns with variable separation as one pattern: a promoter. The neural
networks use as input a small window of DNA sequence, as well as the output
of other neural networks. Through the use of genetic algorithms, the
weights in the neural networks are optimized to discriminate maximally
between promoters and non- promoters. RESULTS: After several thousand
generations of optimization, the algorithm was able to discriminate between
vertebrate promoter and non-promoter sequences in a test set with a
correlation coefficient of 0.63. In addition, all five known transcription
start sites on the plus strand of the complete adenovirus genome were
within 161 bp of 35 predicted transcription start sites. On standardized
test sets consisting of human genomic DNA, the performance of Promoter2.0
compares well with other software developed for the same purpose.
