Chip- Chip Seq - Seaching For Curated Transcription Factors

Question

[Anuraj Nayarisseri]

I am using ChIP- ChIP Seq for analysing Histone modification during some binding of protein directly or indirectly to a DNA. The signature of binding nucleotide sequence is often shown in terms of PWM (position weight matrix). PWM shows the probability of a nucleotide at a position in sequence if it binds to a transcription factor. So I am searching for some curated Transcription factors to do a comparative study for the same. can any one suggest me any curated repository. I have already gone through TRANSFAC. do you recommend any other database.

Answer 1

[Andrew Su]

JASPAR and TRANSFAC are the two resources that I see referenced most.

Answer 2

[Casey Bergman]

Try Jaspar or Pazar.

Uniprobe could be also of interest.
