Abstract: This is an investigation of methods for finding short motifs that only occur in a fraction of the input sequences. Unlike local search techniques that may not reach a global optimum, the method proposed here is guaranteed to produce the motifs with greatest z-scores. This method is illustrated for the Ribosome Binding Site Problem, which is to identify the short mRNA 5 0 untranslated sequence that is recognized by the ribosome during initiation of protein synthesis. Experiments were... (Update)
