Development of an epitope conservancy analysis tool to facilitate the design of epitope-based diagnostics and vaccines
Background: In an epitope-based vaccine setting, the use of conserved epitopes would be expected to provide broader protection across multiple strains, or even species, than epito...

DCD - a novel plant specific domain in proteins involved in development and programmed cell death
Background: Recognition of microbial pathogens by plants triggers the hypersensitive reaction, a common form of programmed cell death in plants. These dying cells generate signals...

Predikin and PredikinDB: a computational framework for the prediction of protein kinase peptide specificity and an associated da
Background: We have previously described an approach to predicting the substrate specificity of serine-threonine protein kinases. The method, named Predikin, identifies key conser...
