footprintDB - online database of transcription factors and DNA binding motifs

I want to introduce you the new bioinformatic contribution of our lab to the science world: footprintDB (http://floresta.eead.csic.es/footprintdb/)

footprintDB is a database with 2905 unique DNA-binding proteins (mostly transcription factors, TFs) and 4001 DNA-binding motifs extracted from the literature and other repositories.

The binding interfaces of (most) proteins in the database are inferred from the collection of protein-DNA complexes described in 3D-footprint.

footprintDB predicts:

1. Transcription factors which bind a specific DNA site or motif
2. DNA motifs likely to recognised by a specific DNA-binding protein

 As summarized in the schema:
