Yeast one-hybrid screening for DNA-protein interactions

TF motif database

The Transcription Factor database used is for Drosophila melanogaster, it consists of a file with 3900 📄 PWM motifs annotating 838 unique Transcription Factors. A more precise annotation of these TFs can be find in this 📄 annotation file.

This database was created by aggregating data from the Fly Factor Survey, JASPAR, Transfac, hdpi, YeTFaSCo, consensus data from SeleX, data from Elemento & Tavazoie, as well as data from Stark lab.

How do we get the transcription factors ?

We use 💻FIMO to screen, and then annotate its output by adding a binding site column, those being found by querying our Drosophila melanogaster TF motif database (see above)

What sequence type can be submitted ?

Input sequences should be in FASTA format. You can input one sequence without header, and it will be named user input, but it has still to be in FASTA format
