Systematic Name Gene Name Motif ID Expert Confidence Dubious? Notes
V YOR229W WTM2 0   Dubious It is not clear that this is a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein; it contains no DNA-binding domain and has no known in vitro sequence specificity. The motif comes only from ChIP-chip so scoring on ChIP-chip is circular.
V YOR230W WTM1 1148 Low Dubious It is not clear that this is a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein; it contains no DNA-binding domain and has no known in vitro sequence specificity. The motifs come only from ChIP-chip so scoring on ChIP-chip is circular.
V YDR485C VPS72 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YPL139C UME1 1143 Low Dubious It is not clear that this is a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein; it contains no DNA-binding domain and has no known in vitro sequence specificity. The motif comes only from ChIP-chip. But, it has a high P-value, and the motif has low similarity to other motifs, with the possible exception of Yox1. But the function of the protein is very different from that of Yox1. Tough call - leave as Dubious, but give Low confidence to motif 1143.
V YNL079C TPM1 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YNL139C THO2 786 Low Dubious It is not clear that this is a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein; it contains no DNA-binding domain and has no known in vitro sequence specificity. The motif comes only from ChIP-chip.
V YER063W THO1 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YDR362C TFC6 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YLR182W SWI6 0   Dubious Swi6 is a cofactor, not a DNA-binding protein. These motifs are for Mbp1 or Swi4.
V YJL176C SWI3 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YPL016W SWI1 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YGR002C SWC4 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YPR086W SUA7 1327 Low Dubious This protein is not expected to bind DNA; it is supposed to bind DNA-bound TBP. The TIRF-PBM data used to generate the motif included only 96 sequences.
V YKL072W STB6 0   Dubious It is not clear that this is a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein; it contains no DNA-binding domain and has no known in vitro sequence specificity. The motif comes only from ChIP-chip so scoring on ChIP-chip is circular. The ChIP-chip motif looks a little like a Rap1 motif.
V YMR053C STB2 710 Low Dubious No direct evidence that this is a DNA-binding protein. Three ChIP-derived motifs but none scores highly by any measure. Motif 710 is an arbitrary choice - looks tidy.
V YNL309W STB1 0   Dubious No direct evidence that this is a DNA-binding protein. It binds Swi6 and the ChIP motifs all resemble Swi4 binding sites.
V YKL020C SPT23 670 Low Dubious I could not find any evidence that this protein binds directly to DNA. It has an IPT domain but no REL domain. None of the ChIP-derived motifs scores highly on ChIP data or anything else. Motif 670 bears some relationship to expression data.
V YER161C SPT2 1114 Low Dubious I could not find any evidence that this protein binds directly to DNA. None of the motifs is significant. All are from ChIP-chip. Motif 1114 chosen simploy because it has the highest numbers overall.
V YOR308C SNU66 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YGL131C SNT2 612 Low Dubious All three motifs are derived from the same ChIP-chip data. However, there is no corroborating data, and not all SANT domains are DNA-binding - or are non-specific, in chromatin proteins. So it could be a cofactor motif; in fact it is similar to motifs of Stp3 and Stp4. The protein has other chromatin-related domains (BAH, PHD/RING). Hence the "Low" assessment.
V YCR033W SNT1 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YOR290C SNF2 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YDR477W SNF1 1110 Medium Dubious Motif 1110 has a quite strong correspondence to ChIP-chip data (from which it is derived). However, there seems to be no evidence that this is a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein. Aside from a weak relationship to expression data there is no corroborating evidence here (and no DNA-binding domain).
V YPR054W SMK1 1875 Low Dubious I could not find any evidence that this protein binds directly to DNA. There is only one motif derived from ChIP-chip but it bears little relationship to the data from which it was derived.
V YDR409W SIZ1 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YDR227W SIR4 0   Dubious There is no evidence that the SIR proteins are sequence-specific DNA-binding proteins. Most of the motifs for them are Rap1 sites.
V YLR442C SIR3 0   Dubious There is no evidence that the SIR proteins are sequence-specific DNA-binding proteins. Most of the motifs for them are Rap1 sites.
V YDL042C SIR2 0   Dubious There is no evidence that the SIR proteins are sequence-specific DNA-binding proteins. Most of the motifs for them are Rap1 sites.
V YKR101W SIR1 0   Dubious There is no evidence that the SIR proteins are sequence-specific DNA-binding proteins. Most of the motifs for them are Rap1 sites.
V YNL257C SIP3 0   Dubious Sip3 is a protein that "transcription through interaction with DNA-bound Snf1p" (SGD); no DNA-binding domain and no evidence for direct interaction with DNA or intrinsic sequence specificity.
V YBL052C SAS3 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YOR077W RTS2 0   Dubious Homolog of Kin17; not a typical C2H2 zinc finger. Believed to be "chromatin-associated proteins involved in UV response and DNA replication". No evidence for sequence-specific DNA-binding. Single ChIP-chip motif does not have strong correspondence to the data from which it is derived.
V YFR037C RSC8 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YIL119C RPI1 0   Dubious It is not clear that this is a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein; it contains no DNA-binding domain and has no known in vitro sequence specificity. The motif comes only from ChIP-chip so scoring on ChIP-chip is circular.
V YMR075W RCO1 1066 Low Dubious There is no evidence that this is a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein rather than a chromatin factor. The higher-scoring ChIP-chip motif appears to have low information content and does not display strong correspondence to the data it was generated from or to expression data.
V YCR066W RAD18 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YIL122W POG1 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YDR323C PEP7 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YBR060C ORC2 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YHL020C OPI1 0   Dubious Motifs do not match and do not explain the ChIP-chip data from which they are derived. Motif 1049 resembles the expected UAS-INO (Ino2/4) binding site (CATGTGAAAT) - Opi1 acts as a repressor by binding Ino2. I believe this protein is a corepressor, and Ino2/4 are the DNA-binding factors. Dubious as sequence-specific TF.
V YGR089W NNF2 0   Dubious I did not find any evidence that this is a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein.
V YDL002C NHP10 502 Low Dubious NHP10 is an HMGB-type protein. Known to prefer DNA ends. There is no independent support for the single PBM motif.
V YOR156C NFI1 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YLR254C NDL1 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YOR372C NDD1 0   Dubious There is no evidence that this is a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein, either in vitro or in vivo or in its sequence. The ChIP-chip motif that scores most highly is actually an MCM1 motif, which is consistent with the role of NDD1 as a "transcriptional activator essential for nuclear division".
V YDR277C MTH1 0   Dubious SGD: "interacts with Rgt1p and the Snf3p and Rgt2p glucose sensors". There is no evidence that this is a sequence-specific transcription factor.
V YMR164C MSS11 204 Low Dubious There is no evidence that this is a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein, rather than a cofactor. The motif has a limited relationship to ChIP-chip data. The literature motif scores better than the motif derived from the ChIP-chip study. Also, the motif is identical to that for FLO8.
V YIL128W MET18 0   Dubious I found no evidence that this is a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein. ChIP-chip motif does not correlate with ChIP-chip data, or anything else.
V YGL197W MDS3 0   Dubious I found no evidence that this is a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein. ChIP-chip motif does not correlate with ChIP-chip data, or anything else.
V YOR298C-A MBF1 0   Dubious This is a coactivator. I found no evidence that it is a sequence-specific TF.
V YGR040W KSS1 0   Dubious There is no evidence that Kss1 is a sequence-specific TF.
V YNL132W KRE33 0   Dubious This is supposed to be a ribosome biogenesis factor. I found no evidence that it is a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein.
V YCL055W KAR4 127 Low Dubious Evidence for sequence specific DNA binding seems weak, hence low confidence
V YNL227C JJJ1 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YER051W JHD1 662 Low Dubious This is a histone demethylase. No evidence for direct DNA binding. Motif 662 is significant. Include, but give low confidence - could be a cofactor.
V YKL032C IXR1 0   Dubious Binds cisplatin-modified DNA. HMG domains. ChIP-chip motifs not significant. Dubious and no credible motif.
V YGL133W ITC1 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YOR304W ISW2 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YGL192W IME4 1000 Low Dubious I could not find evidence that IME4 is a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein. C3H1 is more typically an RNA-binding domain or something besides nucleic acid binding. There is one significant ChIP-chip motif but perhaps it binds through a cofactor. No other supporting data.
V YJR094C IME1 0   Dubious Interacts with UME6. The only significant motif shares 5/6 bases with the UME6 motif core (GCCGCC)
V YLR223C IFH1 0   Dubious Cofactor of Fhl1p. No evidence for sequence-specific DNA-binding.
V YBL003C HTA2 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YDR225W HTA1 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YMR172W HOT1 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YLR113W HOG1 0   Dubious This is a signalling molecule that associates with many TFs (see SGD)
V YJR140C HIR3 0   Dubious Hir1,2,3 are a nucleosome assembly complex, not TFs
V YOR038C HIR2 0   Dubious Hir1,2,3 are a nucleosome assembly complex, not TFs
V YBL008W HIR1 0   Dubious Hir1,2,3 are a nucleosome assembly complex, not TFs
V YNL199C GCR2 0   Dubious Gcr2 is not a DNA-binding protein. SGD: "Gcr1p is a DNA-binding protein interacting with the consensus sequence CTTCC, whereas Gcr2p interacts with Gcr1p". But, ChIP-chip motif 606 is probably the best Gcr1 motif available (even though it came from Gcr2 ChIP).
V YML051W GAL80 0   Dubious Gal80 is not a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein
V YDR009W GAL3 0   Dubious Gal3 is not a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein
V YER109C FLO8 67 Low Dubious I found no evidence that this is a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein, i.e. that it binds directly to DNA in vitro. The motif has a limited relationship to ChIP-chip data. The literature motif scores better than the motif derived from the ChIP-chip study. Also, the motif is identical to that for MSS11.
V YDL166C FAP7 0   Dubious This is supposed to be a ribosome biogenesis factor. I found no evidence that it is a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein.
V YNL023C FAP1 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YNR054C ESF2 0   Dubious This is supposed to be a ribosome biogenesis factor. I found no evidence that it is a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein.
V YMR176W ECM5 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YPL049C DIG1 0   Dubious Not a TF - it binds Ste12; all the motifs are Ste12 motifs.
V YER164W CHD1 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YMR213W CEF1 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YGR140W CBF2 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YKL005C BYE1 0   Dubious SGD: "Negative regulator of transcription elongation, contains a TFIIS-like domain and a PHD finger, multicopy suppressor of temperature-sensitive ess1 mutations, probably binds RNA polymerase II large subunit". No evidence this is a sequence-specific TF.
V YER159C BUR6 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YDL074C BRE1 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YNL039W BDP1 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YGR097W ASK10 0   Dubious I did not find any evidence that this is a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein.
V YDR448W ADA2 0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YMR072W ABF2 541 Medium Dubious Protein is not expected to be sequence specific. But motif is obtained in vitro. May need further investigation. Give medium confidence, but label as dubious.
V YDR049W   0   Dubious No evidence this is a TF, aside from a poorly-scoring C2H2 zinc finger
V YFL052W   0   Dubious Putative zinc-cluster protein.
V YPL216W   0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YLR211C   0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YGR071C   0   Dubious Unlikely to be true TF.
V YJL056C ZAP1 2097 High   Most motifs are similar but do not exceed confidence thresholds on any data type. PBM motif 2097 has highest score for ChIP and expression, and is not circular
V YOR162C YRR1 2245 High   Classic monomeric GAL4-class motif. PBM studies agree and score significantly on Harbison data. No other motifs have spacing/orientation except 11909958, but even the authors of this study note that "Only half a dyad seems to be conserved in this consensus sequence". 2245 scores highest in Harbison data.
V YOR172W YRM1 813 High   Two PBM studies largely agree on classic GAL4-class monomeric motif. Motif 813 has indications of spacing and orientation of dimeric protein.
V YML027W YOX1 498 High   Two PBM studies and Pramila et al. (PMID 12464633) agree on classic homeodomain TAATTA motif. All three correlate with expression change and OE. Motif 453 is not a direct measurement so choose PBM motif that is the same length as the typical homeodomain footprint - 498 also correlates best with OE data; expression scores are skewed low by the large number of cell-cycle measurements.
V YDR451C YHP1 716 High   ChIP-chip, EMSA, and one-hybrid all arrive at a classic homeodomain TAATTG motif. Microarray enrichment motif (716) scores higher on OE data from another study than ChIP motifs do, and does nearly as well on ChIP data.
V YOL028C YAP7 1737 High   7-base bZIP core. Obtained in ChIP-chip studies and higher correspondence to stressed ChIP-chip data. Possible heterodimer? Little literature on this protein. 1737 chosen because it is largely symmetric and has highest score for both stressed and unstressed Harbison data, also, higher GO score
V YOL028C YAP7 1414 High   8-base bZIP core. Obtained by Mitomi, so this is a homodimer. Higher correspondence to unstressed ChIP-chip data. Little literature on this protein. 1414 chosen for higher ChIP-chip overall scores; plus, it is a palindrome as expected for a bZIP protein.
V YDR259C YAP6 599 High   PBM and ChIP-chip can derive basically the same motif, which is a classical YAP motif. They score similarly on all criteria. The ChIP-chip motif (599) has fewer low-information flanking bases.
