Hello Gaurav,

Thank you while for your patience while we gathered information
concerning your request.

The short answer is that a definitive set of all mappings does not
exist, however there are tracks/analysis methods that you might be 
interested in. I am forwarding you the reply from one of the TFBS
track authors who is very knowledgeable about this datatype.

For any external data found, the option of adding it to the UCSC browser
as a custom track is always possible. The overall idea would be to 
find TFB Sites and map to genes (if needed) using the Table browser
and Galaxy.

Best wishes,
