Machine learning analysis of the human initiator region reveals key features of different types of core promoters

The initiator (Inr) is the starting point for the transcription of many genes. Here, we generated highly predictive machine learning models of the human Inr region, and determined that the Inr is present in ∼60% of focused human promoters, identified a novel TATA-specific Inr, an...
