* Package name : libtfbs-perl Version : 0.5 * URL : http://tfbs.genereg.net/ * License : GPL, Artistic Programming Lang: C, Perl Description : module to scan DNA sequences with a position weight matrix The TFBS perl modules comprise a set of routines to interact with the Transfac and Jaspar databases that describe a special family of proteins, the transcription factors. These bind to genomic DNA to initiate (or prevent) the readout of a gene. Once multiple binding sites are known for a transcription factor, these are gathered in a single file and are aligned in order to find position-specific characteristica that might be used to predict such binding events in novel DNA sequences. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
