Methods for determining whether a molecule affects a disorder are provided. A cell from an organism is contacted with the molecule, or the molecule is expressed within the cell. A determination is made as to whether the RNA or protein expression in the cell of at least one open reading frame is changed relative to the expression of the reading frame in the absence of the molecule. Each such open reading frame is regulated by a promoter native to SEQ ID NOS: 5-9, 11-12, 14, 16, 18, 20-21, 23, 25, 27, 29, 31, 33 or homologs of the foregoing. A determination is made as to whether the molecule affects the disorder when the RNA or protein expression of the at least one reading frame is changed. Alternatively, a determination is made that the molecule does not affect the disorder when the RNA or protein expression of the at least one reading frame is unchanged.
