MAPPER: a search engine for the computational identification of putative transcription factor binding sites in multiple genomes
Background: Cis-regulatory modules are combinations of regulatory elements occurring in close proximity to each other that control the spatial and temporal expression of genes. Th...

A novel series of compositionally biased substitution matrices for comparing Plasmodium proteins
Background: The most common substitution matrices currently used (BLOSUM and PAM) are based on protein sequences with average amino acid distributions, thus they do not represent ...
