In this paper we present algorithms for the localization and extraction of interesting motifs from Biological Sequences. We are especially interested in Weighted Sequences, which are extensively used in Molecular Biology as profiles for protein families and for the representation of binding sites. It is our belief that these algorithms can also be applied to other Information Technology Applications such as Network Management, Data Mining and Signal Processing.
