rVISTA 2.0 -- Evolutionary Analysis of Transcription Factor Binding Sites

What you can do:
Analyze the regulatory potential of noncoding sequences.
Highlights:
  • The tool combines transcription factor binding sites predictions, sequence comparisons and cluster analysis to identify noncoding DNA regions that are evolutionarily conserved and present in a specific configuration within genomic sequences.
  • IT can process alignments generated by both the zPicture and blastz alignment programs or use pre-computed pairwise alignments of several vertebrate genomes available from the ECR Browser and GALA database.
  • The rVISTA web server is interconnected with the TRANSFAC database, allowing users to either search for matrices present in the TRANSFAC library collection or search for user-defined consensus sequences.
Keywords:
  • DNA-binding sites
  • transcription factor binding sites
  • promoter analysis tool
  • promoter elements
  • regulatory elements
  • cis-elements
