Summary: We present GIMSAN (GIbbsMarkov with Significance ANalysis): a novel tool for de novo motif finding. GIMSAN combines GibbsMarkov, our variant of the Gibbs Sampler, described here for the first time, with our recently introduced significance analysis.
Availability: GIMSAN is currently available as a web application and a stand-alone application on Unix and PBS (Portable Batch System) cluster through links from http://www.cs.cornell.edu/~keich.
