Abstract
In this chapter, we will describe the bioinformatic tools that allow verifying the presence of CpG islands in a gene promoter region. We will also describe the tools needed to identify consensus motifs for specific transcription factors, focusing on the study of rat type-1 cannabinoid receptor gene (R_Cnr1) as a case study.Entities:
