Abstract :Motif, a DNA particle, has an important role in the formation of DNA sequences or in the placement of the regular DNA particles. The discovery of motif is the operation of finding out the potential DNA particles that are able to transform into motifs in a given DNA sequence. In this study, with the help of Sapling Growing up Algorithm, Motif discovery has been realized on the DNA sequences. Sapling Growing up Algorithm is an algorithm developed as a result of the study concerning sapling growth. In this method, the data that may be of help in solving the problem are put into strings of solution that are called “sapling”. Sowing of the saplings, mating, branching, and vaccinating are taken as operators. Sowing of the saplings provides the formation of new saplings insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(solutions); in the search space. Branching provides the local searching, and mating provides the global searching. Vaccinating, however, provides the exchange of information between similar saplings. In literature, some of the methods on motif discovery studies are as follows: AlignACE, MEME, MEME3, MotifSampler, Consensus, Weeder, etc. The results attained in this study have been compared with AlignACE, MEME, MEME3, MotifSampler, Consensus, Weeder methods’ results in the conclusion part of the paper. The data in this paper have been obtained form TRANSFAC database.
