MatrixREDUCE is a bioinformatics software tool that models DNA binding motifs. Its mxr file format is used for data related to these models.
The model assumes that each nucleotide position in a binding site contributes independently and additively to the overall binding-free energy of the DNA motif.
Because the format is text-based, its contents can be inspected outside MatrixREDUCE.
Open an mxr file in MatrixREDUCE when the file is intended as input for that software. Since the format is text-based, a plain-text editor can also display its contents.
