PWMEnrich

PWM enrichment analysis

Bioconductor version: Release (2.11)

Asses the enrichment of already known PWMs (e.g. from JASPAR) in DNA sequences. Motif hits in a sequence or DNA region are considered together and P-values derived for their joint pattern. The package implements multiple algorithms, including fixed-threshold (Z-score) and threshold-free (Lognormal normalization and Clover) methods. The main goal is to identify a set of transcription factors that most likely bind to a single sequence, group of sequences, or show significantly different binding affinity between two sets of sequences.
