DiffLogo

DiffLogo is an R package for intuitively visualizing differences between sequence motifs, addressing the challenge of discerning subtle distinctions in motifs associated with transcription factors, protein domains, or various conditions. This user-friendly tool supports DNA and protein motifs, offering a pair-wise comparison that produces publication-quality figures. For scenarios involving more than two motifs, DiffLogo organizes motifs by similarity in a tabular format with colored difference logos for enhanced clarity.
