Today, EPD is one of several promoter databases Among them, it is by far the oldest. It has been electronically distributed and regularly updated since 1986. As such, it had a big impact on promoter research. During the 90s, computational analysis of eukaryotic promoter sequences (in particular the

A large number of textbooks on bioinformatics and computational biology include a description of EPD, often under a corresponding subsection heading. Below are just a few examples:
