RTFAdb

Retrotransposon - Transcription Factor Associations database

RTFAdb

RTFAdb is a public repository of the overrepresented retrotransposon species -including long terminal repeat (LTR) retrotransposons, long interspersed elements (LINEs), and short interspersed elements (SINEs)- in the binding sites of the human and mouse transcription factors (TFs). By using over 3000 TF ChIP-Seq profiles retrieved from ENCODE project, RTFAdb provides convenient access to computationally predicted associations between retrotransposons and TFs in the human and mouse genomes.

Search modules

i. Search by Transcription Factor (TF)
This module allows you to retreive all statistically overrepresented retrotransposons in the binding sites of the selected TF.
ii. Search by Retrotransposon
This module allows you to explore whether the selected retrotransposon is significantly overrepresented in the binding sites of any TF.
iii. Search by Cell / Tissue type
This module allows you to retrieve all putative associations between retrotransposons and TFs for the selected tissue or cell type.
