    cERMIT is a computationally efficient motif discovery tool based on analyzing genome-wide quantitative regulatory evidence. Instead of pre-selecting promising candidate sequences, it utilizes information across all sequence regions to search for high-scoring motifs. We apply cERMIT on a range of direct binding and overexpression datasets; it substantially outperforms state-of-the-art approaches on curated ChIP-chip datasets, and easily scales to current mammalian ChIP-seq experiments with data on thousands of non-coding regions.
