Extract common TFBS from a list of genes

Question

[sofia.figueiredo]

Dear BioStars Community,

I have a list of genes and I want to know if they have, in their promotor regions, any transcription factor binding sites in common. Do you know the best way to tackle this problem? How can I automatically extract the promotor regions of these genes and retrieve their TFBS? I will be happy to solve this problem either in R or using any web-based tool.

TIA, Sofia
