A Novel Approach to Remote Homology Detection: Jumping Alignments
We describe a new algorithm for protein classi cation and the detection of remote homologs. The rationale is to exploit both vertical and horizontal information of a multiple alig...

Improving model construction of profile HMMs for remote homology detection through structural alignment
Background: Remote homology detection is a challenging problem in Bioinformatics. Arguably, profile Hidden Markov Models (pHMMs) are one of the most successful approaches in addre...

Statistical significance in biological sequence analysis
One of the major goals of computational sequence analysis is to find sequence similarities, which could serve as evidence of structural and functional conservation, as well as of ...

The PD-(D/E)XK superfamily revisited: identification of new members among proteins involved in DNA metabolism and functional pre
Background: The PD-(D/E)XK nuclease superfamily, initially identified in type II restriction endonucleases and later in many enzymes involved in DNA recombination and repair, is o...

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...
