Abstract We introduce a method that considers target genes of a transcription factor and searches for transcription factor binding sites TFBSs of secondary factors responsible for differential responses among these targets. Based on the distance difference matrix concept the method simultaneously integrates statistical overrepresentation and co-occurrence of TFBSs. Our approach is validated on datasets of differentially regulated human genes and is shown to be highly effective in detecting TFBSs responsible for the observed differential gene expression. Background Eukaryotic genes are transcriptionally regulated by the coordinated interaction of multiple transcription factors with arrays of transcription factor binding sites TFBSs and with each other. Arrays of TFBSs referred to as cz s-regulatory modules CRMs 1 2 are usually situated upstream of the genes they regulate. A simple strategy based on the assumption that co-expression .
