A gene can be expressed as protein, and this protein can serve as activator or repressor to regulate the expression of other gene. How can I know the name of a gene product which is known as transcription factor？Is there any data of yeast I can download from the internet？Thank you for help!
Thank you for helping me！Let me express my question further:suppose I kown the name of a TF, and I kown how this TF regulate the expression of gene(A). If this TF is the product of gene(B), what I want to kown is the name of gene(B). Do you kown any database of this question?
If you know the name of the TF you can query NCBI protein: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/protein. Under CDS it says: /gene="gene name".
Hi! Sorry to disturbing you again! Now, I want to kown more about detail yeast database which is the order or the sequence of gene expression. In short, B is the gene expression product of gene A, B can regulate the expression of gene C, and D is the gene expression product of gene C, thus D can regulate gene E, and so on. Do you kown some database or articles? Thanks so much!
You'll want to make a separate question for that, otherwise people are not going to see it. Out of the top of my head I wouldn't about a database like that. If it is only for a few genes you can read the literature and create your own map (article 1 is about A and B and says B interacts with C/D, search new articles for C/D and it says it interacths with D/E etc)
