P-Match -- transcription factor binding site search by combining patterns and weight matrices
What you can do:
Identify transcription factor (TF) binding sites in DNA sequences.
Highlights:
- P-Match combines pattern matching and weight matrix approaches thus providing higher accuracy of recognition than each of the methods alone.
- P-Match is closely interconnected with the TRANSFAC database.
- P-Match uses the matrix library as well as sets of aligned known TF-binding sites collected in TRANSFAC and therefore provides the possibility to search for a large variety of different TF binding sites.
- P-Match generally provides superior recognition accuracy in the area of low false negative errors (high sensitivity).
- As familiar to the user of Matchtrade mark, P-Match also allows to save user-specific profiles that include selected subsets of matrices with corresponding TF-binding sites or user-defined cut-off values.
- Furthermore, a number of tissue-specific profiles are provided that were compiled by the TRANSFAC team.
- Free registration is needed for using the Web server.
