Hierarchical Protein Structure Superposition Using Both Secondary Structure and Atomic Representations
The structural comparison of proteins has become increasingly important as a means to identify protein motifs and fold families. In this paper we present a new algorithm for the c...

GASH: An improved algorithm for maximizing the number of equivalent residues between two protein structures
Background: We introduce GASH, a new, publicly accessible program for structural alignment and superposition. Alignments are scored by the Number of Equivalent Residues (NER), a q...

Improving pairwise sequence alignment accuracy using near-optimal protein sequence alignments
Background: While the pairwise alignments produced by sequence similarity searches are a powerful tool for identifying homologous proteins - proteins that share a common ancestor ...

High quality protein sequence alignment by combining structural profile prediction and profile alignment using SABERTOOTH
Background: Protein alignments are an essential tool for many bioinformatics analyses. While sequence alignments are accurate for proteins of high sequence similarity, they become...

Structure alignment based on coding of local geometric measures
Background: A structure alignment method based on a local geometric property is presented and its performance is tested in pairwise and multiple structure alignments. In this appr...
