Connected to the TRANSFAC database on transcription factors and their binding sites is now
a pattern search engine (PatSearch) written by Holger Karas. Using this tool, you may use
all sequence elements of the database to scan your sequence for potential TF binding
sites. You have to choose between selected sequence libraries (vertebrates, insects,
plants, fungi, consensi). The program output contains the position of the matches and an
alignment of the matching sequences.
Any suggestion for improvements will be appreciated!
