AthaMap provides a genome-wide map of potential transcription factor binding
sites (TFBS) in Arabidopsis thaliana.
Data in AthaMap is based on published transcription factor (TF) binding specificities available as
alignment matrices or experimentally determined single binding sites. Matrix- and pattern-based
screenings were performed to identify potential transcription factor binding sites
in the genome of Arabidopsis thaliana (TAIR release 8). The complete list of
the 115 transcription factors included in AthaMap and the corresponding references and screening results are displayed on the
documentation page.
By using the search function, the sequence of a specific genomic
position or gene can be displayed in a sequence window including the potential transcription
factor binding sites. A colocalization function allows the
search for user-defined potential combinatorial elements. A set of pre-calculated known
combinatorial elements is already incorporated in AthaMap. The
Gene Analysis tool enables identification of common transcription
factor binding sites in a set of user-submitted genes. The Gene Identification tool allows the search
for genes harbouring specific transcription factor binding sites.
