Software for motif discovery and next generation sequencing analysis

HOMER (Hypergeometric Optimization of Motif EnRichment) is a suite of tools for Motif Discovery and ChIP-Seq analysis. It is a collection of command line programs for unix-style operating systems written in mostly perl and c++. Homer was primarily written as a de novo motif discovery algorithm that is well suited for finding 8-12 bp motifs in large scale genomics data.

Hardware Requirements (recommended): 2+ Gb memory (4-8+ Gb), 10+ Gb Hard Drive space (50+ Gb)
Software Requirements: Unix compatible OS (or cygwin), perl, gcc, make, wget (optional for full functionality: R, DESeq2, blat, bedGraphToBigWig, liftOver)
License: GPLv3

HOMER works on pretty much any Linux/UNIX systems, including MacOS (if Xcode compilers are installed) and on Windows using either cygwin or a Linux subsystem.

If you are looking specifically for HOMER2, you are in the right place! HOMER2 is integrated into HOMER.

For decades, the narrative of "mature" women in Hollywood was one of rapid disappearance. Actresses were often told their "expiration date" was 40, after which they were relegated to secondary roles as mothers, "sad widows," or background figures defined solely by physical decline.

However, by 2026, a significant shift has placed complex, mature women at the heart of cinematic storytelling. From global blockbusters to prestige television, a new wave of female-led narratives is finally moving past youth-centric tropes to explore the depth, agency, and vibrancy of women in their 50s, 60s, and 70s. 1.

Recent research highlights a growing audience appetite for realistic, nuanced portrayals of aging rather than just "anti-aging" narratives. From global blockbusters to prestige television, a new

A cornerstone of this shift is the refusal of established legends to "disappear." In 2026, (76) used the press tour for The Devil Wears Prada 2 to explicitly challenge the idea that older women should "style themselves with a whisper," demonstrating that visibility can deepen with age. Similarly, Michelle Yeoh (63) remains an Oscar-winning superstar redefining longevity, while Sigourney Weaver (76) continues to lead major projects like Avatar: Fire and Ash . 2.

The configuration script really doesn't deal with older versions, but you can download older versions yourself should you really feel like using inferior data or software!
