Quantitative analysis of the relationship between nucleotide sequence and functional activity

Gary D. Stormo, Thomas D. Schneider and Larry Gold

Department of Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology, University of Colorado Boulder, CO 80309-0347, USA

Received April 22, 1986. Revised July 14, 1986. Accepted July 14, 1986.

Matrices can be used to evaluate sequences for functional activity. Multiple regression can solve for the matrix that gives the best fit between sequence evaluations and quantitative activities. This analysis shows that the best model for context effects on suppression by su2 involves primarily the two nucleotides 3' to the amber codon, and that their contributions are independent and additive. Context effects on 2AP mutagenesis also involve the two nucleotides 3' to the 2AP insertion, but their effects are not independent. In a construct for producing ß-galactosidase, the effects on translational yields of the tri-nucleotide 5' to the initiation codon are dependent on the entire triplet. Models based on these quantitative results are presented for each of the examples.
