JASPAR is the most complete open-access collection of transcription factor binding site (TFBS) matrices. In this new release, JASPAR grows into a meta-database of collections of TFBS models derived by diverse approaches. We present JASPAR CORE--an expanded version of the original, non-redundant collection of annotated, high-quality matrix-based transcription factor binding profiles, JASPAR FAM--a collection of familial TFBS models and JASPAR phyloFACTS--a set of matrices computationally derived from statistically overrepresented, evolutionarily conserved regulatory region motifs from mammalian genomes. JASPAR phyloFACTS serves as a non-redundant extension to JASPAR CORE, enhancing the overall breadth of JASPAR for promoter sequence analysis. The new release of JASPAR is available at http://jaspar.genereg.net.
JASPAR是转录因子结合位点(TFBS)矩阵最完整的开放获取集合。在这个新版本中,JASPAR发展成为一个通过多种方法衍生的TFBS模型集合的元数据库。我们展示了JASPAR CORE——原始的、基于高质量矩阵注释的非冗余转录因子结合谱集合的扩展版本,JASPAR FAM——家族TFBS模型集合,以及JASPAR phyloFACTS——一组从哺乳动物基因组中统计上过度表达、进化上保守的调控区域基序通过计算得出的矩阵。JASPAR phyloFACTS作为JASPAR CORE的非冗余扩展,增强了JASPAR用于启动子序列分析的整体广度。JASPAR的新版本可在http://jaspar.genereg.net获取。
