I have a FASTA sequence and want to find the corresponding TF, so I added all the Homo sapiens TFs to cart and input a sequence to scan, but an error was displayed , showing something went wrong. Did I use the tool correctly?

Thanks for using JASPAR. It looks like you used the tool correctly. Can you share the error that was displayed?
As a note, I recommend you use all vertebrate TFs and not only "Homo sapiens" since we provide one profile per taxa, not species; so all vertebrate profiles can be used for any vertebrate sequence.
You might wanna use the TFBS extraction tool if you have a specific genomic region of interest. I would also recommend you look at our UniBind resources if you are interested in finding TFBSs for specific TFs in human (https://unibind.uio.no).

Thank you for your reply! When I choose all TFs and try to input a sequence to scan, I get an error as following picture. 1717156359991.png

This is weird. I can run the tool. Could you specify what you mean by all TFs (for a taxon? on a results page?)? It would be good to see screenshots of each step you have taken. Maybe you can send them to me via email at anthony....@ncmm.uio.no.

I found that it would work properly  when I entered a longer FASTA sequence. Thank you for your help!
