GIMSAN (by Patrick Ng and Uri Keich of Cornell University) is a DNA motif-finder equipped with a practical and reliable statistical significance analysis. For more details about GIMSAN, please visit the GIMSAN homepage. If you use this program in your research, please cite:

Patrick Ng, Uri Keich. GIMSAN: A Gibbs motif finder with significance analysis. Bioinformatics, 24 (19): 2256-2257, 2008.

GIMSAN is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant No. 0644136.

You will need to upload your input FASTA file (DNA only!) and select (optionally) the genomic file. You will then need to specify the set of width parameters, the size of the nullset which will be used to calculate the P-values, program options, and the number of processors you want the job to run on. A more detailed description of input options is available here.

Calculations will be carried out on the BioHPC compute cluster at CBSU. You will receive e-mail notifications when the job is submitted, when it starts, and when it is finished. Output will be available via links embedded in the notification e-mails. For more information about this program and BioHPC interface in general, please visit our Frequently Asked Questions page.
