+The MEME suite: motif based sequence analysis tools
+
+The MEME suite provides tools for discovering and using protein and
+DNA sequence motifs. A motif is a pattern of nucleotides or amino acids
+that appears repeatedly in a group of related DNA or protein sequences.
+
+The MEME suite represents motifs as position-dependent scoring matrices.
+It consists of programs which allow you to:
+
+- meme - discovery of motifs shared by a group of sequences
+- mast - search of databases for sequences containing these motifs
+- tomtom - searching databases of motifs for similar motifs
+- gomo - finding Gene Ontology terms linked to the motifs
+- glam2 - discovery of gapped motifs
+- glam2scan - scanning sequences with gapped motifs
+- fimo - scanning sequences with motifs
+- mcast - finding motif clusters
+- meme-chip - analysis of large DNA datasets like ChIPseq output
+- spamo - finding motif complexes by analysing motif spacing
+- dreme - discovery of short regular expression motifs
+
+Note: building on a 32bit architecture fails at the 'make test' step
+(check script). If the step is disabled, the suite builds, however it
+may or may NOT work properly. Therefore, 32bit is set as 'UNTESTED'.
+The 'make test' step will also fail if you don't build in a proper root
+environment.
