FIMO
FIMO searches sequences for matches to supplied motifs. It is a procedural motif-scanning comparator.

How it works
Schematic of the documented input, computation and output; not an executable configuration.
Read the diagram as text
- Motifs and sequences
- Alphabet and background
- Motif scanning
- Candidate motif occurrences
A motif set and sequence collection are supplied with an alphabet and background model. The background accounts for letter-frequency differences when scoring motif occurrences.

Strengths and limitations
Limitations and conditions
- Changing the background or motif collection changes the analysis. Motif occurrence is not by itself proof of binding or regulatory activity.meme official source · FIMO submission documentation: Input motifs, Input sequences and Background model
