Background: The analysis of the promoter sequence of genes with similar expression patterns is a basic tool to annotate common regulatory elements. Multiple sequence alignments ar...
Background: The alignment of multiple protein sequences is a fundamental step in the analysis of biological data. It has traditionally been applied to analyzing protein families f...
Background: Many bioinformatics analyses, ranging from gene clustering to phylogenetics, produce hierarchical trees as their main result. These are used to represent the relations...
Background: Present-day `-omics' technologies produce overwhelming amounts of data which include genome sequences, information on gene expression (transcripts and proteins) a...
