EPD -- eukaryotic promoter database
What you can do:
Search for annotated information on eukaryotic promoters and conduct comparative promoter analysis.
Highlights:
- EPD is an annotated non-redundant collection of eukaryotic POL II promoters, experimentally defined by a transcription start site (TSS).
- Provides annotated and non-redundant collection of eukaryotic POL II promoters.
- Allows dynamic extraction of biologically meaningful promoter subsets for comparative sequence analysis.
- Subsets of promoter sequences with customized 5' and 3' extensions can be downloaded from the EPD website.
