Worm Single Site Analysis (SSA) identifies over-represented conserved transcription factor binding sites in sets of C. elegans and C. briggsae genes.

Yeast Single Site Analysis (SSA) identifies over-represented transcription factor binding sites in sets of S. cerevisiae genes. Phylogenetic footprinting has not been used for yeast.
