Figure 2

The input section of Scan for motifs showing the range of supported regulatory elements and background controls. For a pre-aligned human 3′ UTR (e.g. TNF-NM_000594) it defaults to searching for over 60 TransTerm regulatory elements with expectations of E-value ≤ 0.175 by chance in typical human 3′ UTR (~1000 nt) (A in Figure) and TargetScan miRNA binding site predictions for ~150 conserved miRNA families (C). In this case the sites for RNA binding proteins with E-values ≤ 1.0 per thousand (B) and miRBase 8mer seeds (D) are also selected.
