Hello, I created a first Debian package for MEME. The tool is well known in the community. It has some drawbacks like that it differnetially find patterns that are only in one set of sequences but not in another (SPEXS can do that) but it is well accepted in the community.
Cheers, Steffen It is available (as usual) at http://bioinformatics.pzr.uni-rostock.de/~moeller/debian/meme I'd be happy for anybody to jump in to write the man pages, separate the website to an extra package and maybe even prepare the MPI-based parallel binaries in yet another package. So - while of interest to the community the package is not yet ready for being sponsored, I am afraid. Description: [Biology] search for common motifs in DNA or protein sequences MEME (Multiple EM for Motif Elicitation) discovers motifs in sequences. . A motif is a sequence pattern that occurs repeatedly in a group of related protein or DNA sequences. Motifs are represented as position-dependent scoring matrices that describe the score of each possible letter at each position in the pattern. Individual motifs may not contain gaps but combinations of patterns may be elucidated. . The output of MEME may be forwarded to the program MAST of this package for the search in sequence databases. .
