About AlignACE
The AlignACE website has a collection of predicted transcription factor binding sites based on running scanACE, an algorithm published[1] by the Church lab against the MG1655 genome.
Content
AlignACE has a table with links from the 59 DNA-binding proteins for which they have predicted binding sites by extrapolation from footprinting data. There are also summary tables and the code for scanACE and alignACE can be downloaded via a link to a Church lab website. These programs implement the approach of Berg and von Hippel [2][3]
