tfscan |
tfscan scans one or more DNA sequences for transcription factor binding sites from the TRANSFAC database. The taxonomic group (Fungi, Insects, ,Plants, Vertebrates or Other) is specified. Matches are searched for using fast sequence word-matching, optionally allowing mismatches. Because the binding sites are so small, there will be many spurious (false positive) matches. Optionally, the minimum length of a match to be reported may be specified.
An output file is written with information on the matches, including sequence ID and accession number, the start and end positions of the match in an input sequence and the sequence of the region where a match has been found. Binding factor information, where available, is given at the end of the matches for each matching entry.

The output consists of a title line then 5 columns separated by whitespace.
The first column is the identifier of the entry.
The second column is the Accession Number of the entry.
The third and fourth columns are the start and end positions of the match in your input sequence.
The fifth column is the sequence of the region where a match has been found.
Binding factor information, where available, is given at the end of the matches for each matching entry.
Your EMBOSS administrator will have to run the EMBOSS program tfextract in order to set these files up from the TRANSFAC distribution files.
EMBOSS data files are distributed with the application and stored in the standard EMBOSS data directory, which is defined by the EMBOSS environment variable EMBOSS_DATA.
To see the available EMBOSS data files, run:
% embossdata -showall
To fetch one of the data files (for example 'Exxx.dat') into your current directory for you to inspect or modify, run:
% embossdata -fetch -file Exxx.dat
Users can provide their own data files in their own directories. Project specific files can be put in the current directory, or for tidier directory listings in a subdirectory called ".embossdata". Files for all EMBOSS runs can be put in the user's home directory, or again in a subdirectory called ".embossdata".
The directories are searched in the following order:
The TRANSFAC Database is a commercial database of eukaryotic cis-acting regulatory DNA elements and trans-acting factors. It covers the whole range from yeast to human. The site.dat data file from TRANSFAC contains information on individual (putatively) regulatory protein binding sites. It has been divided into the following taxonomic groups.
An old public domain version of TRANSFAC is available at: ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/transfac/transfac32.tar.Z
This means that you should contact your EMBOSS administrator and ask them to run the tfextract program to set up the TRANSFAC data for EMBOSS.
