Abstract

Locating motifs in DNA sequences is a traditional conjunctional and challenging problem in the discipline of bioinformatics. Motif refers to the biologically functional short, recurring common sequence pattern in DNA strands involved in important processes taking place at the genetic level in an organism. Motifs are the small set of immunity genes present in the DNA sequences as a binding site and turn on whenever the organism gets infected. Motif discovery is integral to problems such as antibody biomarker identification and transcription factor binding sites (TBFS) in the field of genetics and holds greater importance to enable advances in understanding human genetics, social intelligence, biology and health. This problem has been broadly studied over the years, but the complexity and optimality of most of the existing algorithms are still very high. Recently, this field of bioinformatics has grown significantly, and many algorithms have been proposed to solve this problem. However, high complexity is the most challenging aspect of this problem which still grabs the attention of many researchers. This paper analyzes the several algorithms mainly on the basis of their computing models and optimality of the solution and presents the critical reviews of the methods adopted for finding the planted motif. These algorithms can also be used for string matching, data mining and pattern detection, etc.
