Motif Tool Manager: a web-based framework for motif discovery

MOTIVATION Motif Tool Manager is a web-based framework for comparing and combining different approaches to discover novel DNA motifs. It comes with a set of five well-known approaches to motif discovery. It provides an easy mechanism for adding new motif finding tools to the framework through a web-interface and a minimal setup of the tools on the server. Users can execute the tools through the...

BEAM web server: a tool for structural RNA motif discovery

Motivation RNA structural motif finding is a relevant problem that becomes computationally hard when working on high-throughput data (e.g. eCLIP, PAR-CLIP), often represented by thousands of RNA molecules. Currently, the BEAM server is the only web tool capable to handle tens of thousands of RNA in input with a motif discovery procedure that is only limited by the current secondary structure pr...

The SiteSeeker Motif Discovery Tool

In this paper we describe some utilizing conditions of a recently published tool that offers two basic functions for the classical problem of discovering motifs in a set of promoter sequences. For the first it is assumed that not necessarily all of the sequences possess a common motif of given length l. In this case, CHECKPROMOTER allows an exact identification of maximal subsets of related pro...

ParaMEME: a parallel implementation and a web interface for a DNA and protein motif discovery tool

Many advanced software tools fail to reach a wide audience because they require specialized hardware, installation expertise, or an abundance of CPU cycles. The worldwide web offers a new opportunity for distributing such systems. One such program, MEME, discovers repeated patterns, called motifs, in sets of DNA or protein sequences. This tool is now available to biologists over the worldwide w...
