Evidence Report for Composite Elements

Overview

An Evidence Report is created for piece of experimental evidence for a composite element. Click here for a review of composite elements.


Please note: Composite Element Evidence Reports are only available for BKL subscribers who have licensed the TRANSFAC module.


Each Evidence Report is similarly organized and comprises different blocks for properties curated and references cited in the Report. Evidence Reports may be accessed through the Compel Reports.


Anatomy of an Evidence Report

The general structure of an Evidence Report is described below.

  • Access help by clicking the help menu  help  and clicking the Evidence report help link.

  • Navigate to the desired section of the report by opening the table of contents  toc

Points of navigation within the report are indicated by the following visual cues.

  • Links to additional reports within the BKL are presented as regular text links.

  • Links to external resources are indicated by a blue bubble, such as the PubMedID link shown here:  external link  .

  • Links to display additional text within the page are indicated by a yellow bubble, such as the show abstract link shown here:  expand content  .

Source of experimental materials
Identifies the materials (tissue, cell line) used in the experiment.


Site 1
Binding site location
Identifies the location of a site within the composite element where an individual transcription factor binds.
Binding factor
Identifies the transcription factor that binds the interaction site mentioned in the block above.
Factor's DNA Binding Domain
Indicates the DNA binding domain involved in the interaction between the transcription factor and the site within the composite element described above. Click here for a list of abbreviations for DNA Binding Domains.
Regulatory Effect of factor binding
Describes the effect, activation or repression, of the interaction between the transcription factor and the site within the composite element described above.
Comments regarding the experiment
Provides additional information about the interaction. Comments are free-text additions made by curators to clarify details in the Report.


Site 2
Binding site location
Identifies the location of another site within the composite element where another transcription factor binds.
Binding factor
Identifies the transcription factor that binds the interaction site mentioned in the block above.
Factor's DNA Binding Domain

Identifiers  
BIOBASE accession
Displays the BIOBASE accession number.

References  
This block gives the full citations, with titles, that correspond to the PubMed identifiers displayed. When a PubMed identifier is not available, the Medline identifier is displayed. When neither a PubMed nor Medline identifier is available, a BIOBASE-specific number is assigned preceded by a "P". Nearly all of the reference numbers are hyperlinked to the Entrez database where the abstracts may be read. All references cited in the annotations and properties section are listed, and other references known to contain information about the protein may also be listed. The first five references are shown, click [ more ...] to view all references. View abstracts via webservice, by additionally clicking the [+] which appears.
