Find out motif

How to search a motif in an entire genome using bioinformatics tool? For eg. if I want to find out hydrophobin (eight-cysteine) with a characteristic pattern of 1-2-1-1-2-1 in fungi (say in Bipolaris maydis, B. victoriae, Fusarium graminearum and Phyphthora infestans) how to do it?

If you have protein sequences available then you can use fuzzpro from EMBOSS: http://emboss.sourceforge.net/apps/release/6.6/emboss/apps/fuzzpro.html

You can use it on Galaxy and get the genomes directly from UCSC or Biomart.

Thank you so much. But how can I search my query motif in the entire genome of the pathogen?

See C: Identification of a given amino acid sequence in nucleotide sequence,

tblastn is easy.

My anwers to this lady may help you, I hope.

Oh right. I missed that. Thank you so much. Ya fungi-plant interaction in context of effector proteins.
