Predict bacterial promoter

[Sabz]

Hi,

I want to know about programs/softwares (preferably unix based) to predict promoters (-10, -35 sites) in bacterial genome.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Sabz.

It's not an easily solved problem. Most gene finders can't even predict the correct start codon site, let alone the promoter. The TSS can be gleaned from RNA-Seq data to some extent.

Thank you. The link you provided is good. And do you know of any software for promoter prediction that can be used offline?

No. I only know that list. I've never used any of them.
