A structural study for the optimisation of functional motifs encoded in protein sequences
Background: A large number of PROSITE patterns select false positives and/or miss known true positives. It is possible that

Discovering structural motifs using a structural alphabet: Application to magnesium-binding sites
Background: For many metalloproteins, sequence motifs characteristic of metal-binding sites have not been found or are so short that they would not be expected to be metal-specifi...

Extraction of Protein Sequence Motifs Information by Bi-Clustering Algorithm
- The activities and function of proteins can potentially be determined by protein sequence motifs. Therefore, obtaining the universally conserved and crossed protein family bounda...

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 ...

Towards Site-Based Protein Functional Annotations
Abstract—The exact relationship between protein active centers and protein functions is unclear even after decades of intensive study. To improve the functional prediction abilit...
