Finding Transcription Factor Binding Motifs for Coregulated Genes by Combining Sequence Overrepresentation with Cross-Species Conservation

Table 3

Comparison to AlignACE. For each TF, we listed the rank of the known motif in the predictions. Three different parameter threshold settings, namely, (a), (b), and (c), are used in our method as given in Table 2.
