Biological sequence motif discovery using motif-x.

Biological sequence motif discovery using motif-x. Curr Protoc Bioinformatics. 2011 Sep;Chapter 13:Unit 13.15-24 Authors: Chou MF, Schwartz D Abstract The Web-based motif-x program provides a simple interface to extract statistically significant motifs from large data sets, such as MS/MS post-translational modification data and groups of proteins that share a common biological function. Users upload data files and download results using common Web browsers on essentially any Web-compatible computer. Once submitted, data analyses are performed rapidly on an associated high-speed computer cluster and they produce both syntactic and image-based motif results and statistics. The protocols presented demonstrate the use of motif-x in three common user scenarios. PMID: 21901740 [PubMed - indexed for MEDLINE]
