Abstract— We propose a new method for collecting information on regulatory elements found by any motif discovery program. We suggest that combining the results of n leave-oneout ...
Background: Discovering overrepresented patterns in amino acid sequences is an important step in protein functional element identification. We adapted and extended NestedMICA, an ...
There are several dimensions and levels of complexity in which information on protein motifs may be available. For example, onedimensional sequence motifs may be associated with s...

Background: Gene regulation in eukaryotes is mainly effected through transcription factors binding to rather short recognition motifs generally located upstream of the coding regi...

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...
