YEASTRACT+: new developments

Description

YEASTRACT+ (http://yeastract-plus.org/) is a portal for the analysis, prediction and modelling of transcription regulatory data at gene and genomic levels in yeasts, focused on Saccharomyces cerevisiae, pathogenic yeasts of the Candida genus, and non-conventional yeasts of biotechnological relevance.

In its newest release, YEASTRACT+ offers upgraded information on transcription regulation for eleven yeast species. It further integrates the Community Yeastract (http://yeastract-plus.org/community/) database, that offers the community a platform for the creation, use, and future update of YEASTRACT-like databases for any yeast of the users’ choice. In addition, a new set of tools, currently implemented for S. cerevisiae and C. albicans, is further offered, aiming the combination of regulatory information with genome-scale metabolic models to provide predictions on the most promising transcription factors to be exploited in cell factory optimization or to be used as novel drug targets.
