Abstract excerpt
MOTIVATION: The problem of finding transcription factor binding sites in the upstream regions of given genes is algorithmically an interesting and challenging problem in computational biology. A degenerate pattern over a finite alphabet Sigma is a sequence of subsets of Sigma. A string over IUPAC nucleic acid codes is also a degenerate pattern over Sigma = {A, C, G, T}, and is used as one of the major patterns...
