I'm trying to understand how MEME's E-values are calculated but can't find how could I reproduce a simple case with a few sequences, a PSPM and an E-value calculation.
Tryied to find some source code of an implementation to try to debug it but was not able, please is somewhere an example of how to calculate MEME's
E-values? Or an explanation of how they can be calculated?
MEME reports an E-value for each motif it finds, which is an estimate of the number of (equally or more interesting) motifs one would expect to find by chance if the letters in the input sequences were shuffled. Motifs with small E-values (e.g., less than 0.001) are very unlikely to be random sequence artifacts.

The complexity of cancer is clearly demonstrated in the diverse ecosystem of the tumor microenvironment (TME). The TME is made up of numerous cell types and its development begins with the changes that happen during oncogenesis. “Genomic mutations, copy number changes, epigenetic alterations, and alternative gene expression occur to varying degrees within the affected tumor cells,” explained Andrea O’Hara, Ph.D., Strategic Technical Specialist at Azenta. “As...07-08-2024, 03:19 PM
