Hi Tomithy
Yes that is correct.

Hi Rhoda,

Thanks for your reply and the help from ensembl's regulation team.

I would just like to restate a point to confirm it:

In the Regulatory evidence query: Can i expect to get Raw experimental annotation of DNA interaction region with different CellTypes and Assays. Eg. ENCODE data. This information would be cleaned up experimentally, eg removing noise, but not filtered by the process of building regulatory features.

Cheers
Tomithy

Hi Tomithy
I have contacted a member our Regulation team and he says:

This is essentially correct. Almost all of the TFs present in the evidence will have been used to build the regulatory features (some may have been omited as we have some filters based on peak length). The situation is slightly different for the histone evidence, there will be a higher proportion not represented by a regulatory feature, as they are only incorporated when they overlap a TF or site of open chromatin (DNase1/FAIRE).

I hope that helps, but if you have further questions please don't hesitate to ask
Regards
Rhoda

Hi Biomart Admin,

I am currently using the biomart services to obtain transcription factor information for my project. I would like to know the difference between the information that I obtain were I to fillup the regulatory features vs regulatory evidence portion of the query form (http://www.ensembl.org/biomart/martview/16aff253720865d2384b56b61a3f1816 with db=Ensembl Regulation 66 for Homo sapiens). This is what I have gathered thus far:

Regulatory features: A set of consolidated and computed regulatory regions supported by different raw experimental data. It's available for each different cell line. Regulatory evidence: Raw experimental annotation of DNA interaction region with different CellTypes and Assays. Eg. ENCODE data.

I have read through the documentation at the following url but would like to confirm this.

Many thanks
Tomithy
