Hi,
I guess you are investigating human sequences?
1. try to extract upstream sequences using i.e http://www.biomart.org/
2. for a set of sequences yo may search using GLAM http://zlab.bu.edu/glam/
see alos other tools from http://sullivan.bu.edu/zlab/gene.shtml site
3. if yo want to do de novo motif discovery there are a couple of
programs, such as MEME (http://meme.sdsc.edu/meme/meme.html) and
NestedMICA http://www.sanger.ac.uk/Software/analysis/nmica/
Hope it helps.
