Site2genome: locating short DNA sequences in whole genomes

Many biological papers describe short, functional DNA sites without specifying their exact positions in the genome. We have developed a Web server that automates the tedious task of locating such sites in eukaryotic genomes, thus giving access to the context of rich annotations that are increasingly...

Description
Summary:Many biological papers describe short, functional DNA sites without specifying their exact positions in the genome. We have developed a Web server that automates the tedious task of locating such sites in eukaryotic genomes, thus giving access to the context of rich annotations that are increasingly available for genome sequences.
