Pscan: finding over-represented transcription factor binding site motifs in sequences from co-regulated or co-expressed genes.

abstract：:Mitochondrial DNA is a sensitive target of chemical carcinogens (Backer and Weinstein (1980) Science 209, 297-299), suggesting that mutations of the mitochondrial genome occur in tumor cells. We examined this point by comparing mitochondrial DNA sequences in four rat tumors with those of normal rat liver. Some novel m...
