Statistics of Random Protein Superpositions: p-Values for Pairwise Structure Alignment
Quantification of statistical significance is essential for the interpretation of protein structural similarity. To address this, a random model for protein structure comparison w...

Improved alignment quality by combining evolutionary information, predicted secondary structure and self-organizing maps
Background: Protein sequence alignment is one of the basic tools in bioinformatics. Correct alignments are required for a range of tasks including the derivation of phylogenetic t...

Application of protein structure alignments to iterated hidden Markov model protocols for structure prediction
Background: One of the most powerful methods for the prediction of protein structure from sequence information alone is the iterative construction of profile-type models. Because ...

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...
