description: JASPAR is a high-quality, open-access database that provides manually
  curated, non-redundant transcription factor (TF) binding profiles for six taxonomic
  groups (fungi, insecta, nematoda, plantae, urochordata, vertebrata). These profiles
  are stored as position frequency matrices (PFMs), which can be transformed into
  models to predict TF binding sites (TFBS) in DNA sequences. The database collects
  motifs both internally, analyzing sequences using a custom motif discovery pipeline,
  and externally from publications and other resources. All selected motifs are manually
  curated for quality and supporting evidence. JASPAR now offers a tool for TFBS enrichment
  analysis in user-provided genomic regions. Data is accessible through the JASPAR
  website, its RESTful API, Bioconductor, or the Python package pyJASPAR.

    abstract: JASPAR (http://jaspar.genereg.net/) is an open-access database containing
      manually curated, non-redundant transcription factor (TF) binding profiles for
      TFs across six taxonomic groups. In this 9th release, we expanded the CORE collection
      with 341 new profiles (148 for plants, 101 for vertebrates, 85 for urochordates,
      and 7 for insects), which corresponds to a 19% expansion over the previous release.
      We added 298 new profiles to the Unvalidated collection when no orthogonal evidence
      was found in the literature. All the profiles were clustered to provide familial
      binding profiles for each taxonomic group. Moreover, we revised the structural
      classification of DNA binding domains to consider plant-specific TFs. This release
      introduces word clouds to represent the scientific knowledge associated with
      each TF. We updated the genome tracks of TFBSs predicted with JASPAR profiles
      in eight organisms; the human and mouse TFBS predictions can be visualized as
      native tracks in the UCSC Genome Browser. Finally, we provide a new tool to
      perform JASPAR TFBS enrichment analysis in user-provided genomic regions. All
      the data is accessible through the JASPAR website, its associated RESTful API,
      the R/Bioconductor data package, and a new Python package, pyJASPAR, that facilitates
      serverless access to the data.

      frequency matrices (PFMs) for TFs across multiple species in six taxonomic groups.
      In this 8th release of JASPAR, the CORE collection has been expanded with 245
      new PFMs (169 for vertebrates, 42 for plants, 17 for nematodes, 10 for insects,
      and 7 for fungi), and 156 PFMs were updated (125 for vertebrates, 28 for plants
      and 3 for insects). These new profiles represent an 18% expansion compared to
      the previous release. JASPAR 2020 comes with a novel collection of unvalidated
      TF-binding profiles for which our curators did not find orthogonal supporting
      evidence in the literature. This collection has a dedicated web form to engage
      the community in the curation of unvalidated TF-binding profiles. Moreover,
      we created a Q&A forum to ease the communication between the user community
      and JASPAR curators. Finally, we updated the genomic tracks, inference tool,
      and TF-binding profile similarity clusters. All the data is available through
      the JASPAR website, its associated RESTful API, and through the JASPAR2020 R/Bioconductor
      package.

      has been expanded with 322 new PFMs (60 for vertebrates and 262 for plants)
      and 33 PFMs were updated (24 for vertebrates, 8 for plants and 1 for insects).
      These new profiles represent a 30% expansion compared to the 2016 release. In
      addition, we have introduced 316 TFFMs (95 for vertebrates, 218 for plants and
      3 for insects). This release incorporates clusters of similar PFMs in each taxon
      and each TF class per taxon. The JASPAR 2018 CORE vertebrate collection of PFMs
      was used to predict TF-binding sites in the human genome. The predictions are
      made available to the scientific community through a UCSC Genome Browser track
      data hub. Finally, this update comes with a new web framework with an interactive
      and responsive user-interface, along with new features. All the underlying data
      can be retrieved programmatically using a RESTful API and through the JASPAR
      2018 R/Bioconductor package.

    abstract: JASPAR is a widely used open-access database of curated, non-redundant
      transcription factor binding profiles. Currently, data from JASPAR can be retrieved
      as flat files or by using programming language-specific interfaces. Here, we
      present a programming language-independent application programming interface
      (API) to access JASPAR data using the Representational State Transfer (REST)
      architecture. The REST API enables programmatic access to JASPAR by most programming
      languages and returns data in eight widely used formats. Several endpoints are
      available to access the data and an endpoint is available to infer the TF binding
      profile(s) likely bound by a given DNA binding domain protein sequence. Additionally,
      it provides an interactive browsable interface for bioinformatics tool developers.
      Availability and implementation This REST API is implemented in Python using
      the Django REST Framework. It is accessible at http://jaspar.genereg.net/api/
      and the source code is freely available at https://bitbucket.org/CBGR/jaspar
      under GPL v3 license. Contact aziz.khan@ncmm.uio.no or anthony.mathelier@ncmm.uio.no

    abstract: JASPAR (http://jaspar.genereg.net) is an open-access database storing
      curated, non-redundant transcription factor (TF) binding profiles representing
      transcription factor binding preferences as position frequency matrices for
      multiple species in six taxonomic groups. For this 2016 release, we expanded
      the JASPAR CORE collection with 494 new TF binding profiles (315 in vertebrates,
      11 in nematodes, 3 in insects, 1 in fungi and 164 in plants) and updated 59
      profiles (58 in vertebrates and 1 in fungi). The introduced profiles represent
      an 83% expansion and 10% update when compared to the previous release. We updated
      the structural annotation of the TF DNA binding domains (DBDs) following a published
      hierarchical structural classification. In addition, we introduced 130 transcription
      factor flexible models trained on ChIP-seq data for vertebrates, which capture
      dinucleotide dependencies within TF binding sites. This new JASPAR release is
      accompanied by a new web tool to infer JASPAR TF binding profiles recognized
      by a given TF protein sequence. Moreover, we provide the users with a Ruby module
      complementing the JASPAR API to ease programmatic access and use of the JASPAR
      collection of profiles. Finally, we provide the JASPAR2016 R/Bioconductor data
      package with the data of this release.

    abstract: JASPAR (http://jaspar.genereg.net) is the largest open-access database
      of matrix-based nucleotide profiles describing the binding preference of transcription
      factors from multiple species. The fifth major release greatly expands the heart
      of JASPAR - the JASPAR CORE subcollection, which contains curated, non-redundant
      profiles - with 135 new curated profiles (74 in vertebrates, 8 in Drosophila
      melanogaster, 10 in Caenorhabditis elegans and 43 in Arabidopsis thaliana; a
      30% increase in total) and 43 older updated profiles (36 in vertebrates, 3 in
      D. melanogaster and 4 in A. thaliana; a 9% update in total). The new and updated
      profiles are mainly derived from published chromatin immunoprecipitation-seq
      experimental datasets. In addition, the web interface has been enhanced with
      advanced capabilities in browsing, searching and subsetting. Finally, the new
      JASPAR release is accompanied by a new BioPython package, a new R tool package
      and a new R/Bioconductor data package to facilitate access for both manual and
      automated methods. © 2013 The Author(s). Published by Oxford University Press.

    abstract: 'JASPAR (http://jaspar.genereg.net) is the leading open-access database
      of matrix profiles describing the DNA-binding patterns of transcription factors
      (TFs) and other proteins interacting with DNA in a sequence-specific manner.
      Its fourth major release is the largest expansion of the core database to date:
      the database now holds 457 non-redundant, curated profiles. The new entries
      include the first batch of profiles derived from ChIP-seq and ChIP-chip whole-genome
      binding experiments, and 177 yeast TF binding profiles. The introduction of
      a yeast division brings the convenience of JASPAR to an active research community.
      As binding models are refined by newer data, the JASPAR database now uses versioning
      of matrices: in this release, 12% of the older models were updated to improved
      versions. Classification of TF families has been improved by adopting a new
      DNA-binding domain nomenclature. A curated catalog of mammalian TFs is provided,
      extending the use of the JASPAR profiles to additional TFs belonging to the
      same structural family. The changes in the database set the system ready for
      more rapid acquisition of new high-throughput data sources. Additionally, three
      new special collections provide matrix profile data produced by recent alternative
      high-throughput approaches. © The Author(s) 2009. Published by Oxford University

    abstract: JASPAR is a popular open-access database for matrix models describing
      DNA-binding preferences for transcription factors and other DNA patterns. With
      its third major release, JASPAR has been expanded and equipped with additional
      functions aimed at both casual and power users. The heart of the JASPAR database
      - the JASPAR CORE sub-database - has increased by 12% in size, and three new
      specialized sub-databases have been added. New functions include clustering
      of matrix models by similarity, generation of random matrices by sampling from
      selected sets of existing models and a language-independent Web Service applications
      programming interface for matrix retrieval. JASPAR is available at http://jaspar.genereg.net.
