To prune matches S' that will eventually not meet the score threshold, we check the score threshold as each position in S' is being considered. If the score for any prefix of S' falls below the score threshold, we can discard S'. In fact, before applying scores over all positions, we first consider the scores for the prefixes of the core positions within the component. This continuous check for the core positions and regular positions leads to very effective pruning. Note that as opposed to previous methods [19-22], our approach does not require the core positions be consecutive so as to find the most conserved parts in the profile. Figure 9 shows how we search for the example profile motif from Figure 8, namely M1 [0, 5] M2 [0, 9] M3.

By continuing this process, we see that AACG satisfies the core score threshold as well as the score threshold. Figure 9(a) shows all the matching positions, i.e., the pos-list, for each component in the profile. Figure 9 Profile Positional Joins and Full Position Recovery. The example sequence S has length 36. (a) Under each component Mi, 1 ≤ i ≤ 3 a set of tuples are listed in the format (start position, subsequence, score, core score). (b) Minimum Simple Scores row gives the minimum score threshold for any prefix of a component; (c) Minimum Core Scores gives the minimum core score threshold for any prefix of core positions for each component; (d) Minimum Structured Scores gives the minimum score threshold for each (component-wise) suffix of the structured motif; (e) The final pos-lists and the index for each component; (f) The motifs (M) that satisfy the profile, along with their full positions (F). Structured motif scoring and positional joins After obtaining the pos-lists of simple motif components, we can enumerate structured motifs by doing positional joins on these pos-lists, as already outlined for structured pattern search. We compute the positional joins with Mi as the head and Mi+1 ⋯ Mk as the tail, as we start from Mk as the head and end at M1 as the head. During the positional joins we also check the partial structured score thresholds λn (Mi ⋯ Mk). If the check fails at any stage we prune the match candidate. We keep a pattern (along with its score) only if it satisfies the full structured score threshold λn. Figure 9(a) shows how to enumerate structured motifs via positional joins. The pos-list of each component is simply the set of positions (1st element of the quadruples) under it. For example, P MathType@MTEF@5@5@+=feaafiart1ev1aaatCvAUfKttLearuWrP9MDH5MBPbIqV92AaeXatLxBI9gBamrtHrhAL1wy0L2yHvtyaeHbnfgDOvwBHrxAJfwnaebbnrfifHhDYfgasaacH8akY=wiFfYdH8Gipec8Eeeu0xXdbba9frFj0=OqFfea0dXdd9vqai=hGuQ8kuc9pgc9s8qqaq=dirpe0xb9q8qiLsFr0=vr0=vr0dc8meaabaqaciaacaGaaeqabaWaaeGaeaaakeaacqqGqbauaaa@3786@(M1) = {1, 5, 10, 21, 25, 32}. As before the joins proceed from M3 to M1, i.e., first we obtain the pos-list for M2 [0,9] M3, and then for M1 [0, 5] as head and M2 [0, 9] M3 as the tail. At any stage, the head motif's pos-list corresponds to the full list of positions shown, whereas the tail's pos-list consists only of the shaded positions. For illustration, we add a link between any two positions, x and y, in adjacent columns if their difference (d = y - x - 1) falls within the corresponding gap range. If the current partial motif starting at position x also satisfies the corresponding (partial) score threshold, the link is solid; otherwise, the link is dashed. When joining M2 as the head and M3 as the tail with a gap of [0, 9], the positions x ∈ P MathType@MTEF@5@5@+=feaafiart1ev1aaatCvAUfKttLearuWrP9MDH5MBPbIqV92AaeXatLxBI9gBamrtHrhAL1wy0L2yHvtyaeHbnfgDOvwBHrxAJfwnaebbnrfifHhDYfgasaacH8akY=wiFfYdH8Gipec8Eeeu0xXdbba9frFj0=OqFfea0dXdd9vqai=hGuQ8kuc9pgc9s8qqaq=dirpe0xb9q8qiLsFr0=vr0=vr0dc8meaabaqaciaacaGaaeqabaWaaeGaeaaakeaacqqGqbauaaa@3786@(M2) that satisfy the gap constraint are 10, 19 and 25 (marked in bold), which thus form the pos-list of M2 [0, 9] M3. We then check whether each occurrence satisfies the corresponding structured score threshold. Figure 9(d) shows the minimum partial scores required for each component suffix. For example the threshold λn (M2 [0, 9] M3) = 5.87. Checking the score for CATACG[0,9]TTACG, we get 2.44 + 3.48 = 5.92 > 5.87, so we keep it.
