Compo: composite motif discovery using discrete models
Background: Computational discovery of motifs in biomolecular sequences is an established field, with applications both in the discovery of functional sites in proteins and regula...

Discriminative motif discovery in DNA and protein sequences using the DEME algorithm
Background: Motif discovery aims to detect short, highly conserved patterns in a collection of unaligned DNA or protein sequences. Discriminative motif finding algorithms aim to i...

Detection of subtle variations as consensus motifs
We address the problem of detecting consensus motifs, that occur with subtle variations, across multiple sequences. These are usually functional domains in DNA sequences such as t...

Some statistical properties of regulatory DNA sequences, and their use in predicting regulatory regions in the Drosophila genome
Background: This paper addresses the problem of recognising DNA cis-regulatory modules which are located far from genes. Experimental procedures for this are slow and costly, and ...

Finding regulatory elements and regulatory motifs: a general probabilistic framework
Over the last two decades a large number of algorithms has been developed for regulatory motif finding. Here we show how many of these algorithms, especially those that model bind...
