Ab initio identification of human microRNAs based on structure motifs
Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short, non-coding RNA molecules that are directly involved in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. The mature miRNA sequence bind...

Motif kernel generated by genetic programming improves remote homology and fold detection
Background: Protein remote homology detection is a central problem in computational biology. Most recent methods train support vector machines to discriminate between related and ...

Functional site prediction selects correct protein models
Background: The prediction of protein structure can be facilitated by the use of constraints based on a knowledge of functional sites. Without this information it is still possibl...

An adaptive bin framework search method for a beta-sheet protein homopolymer model
Background: The problem of protein structure prediction consists of predicting the functional or native structure of a protein given its linear sequence of amino acids. This probl...
