GEMS Launcher integrates highest quality databases and gold standard algorithms for in-depth analysis of transcriptional regulation. The tasks are divided into the following categories:

• Transcription factor binding sites
• Complex regulatory patterns
• Alignment
• Miscellaneous
• Genomatix sequence tools
