A new category of protein motif is introduced. This type of motif captures, in addition to global structure, the nested structure of its componentparts. Adata.set of four proteins...

Background: Motif discovery aims to detect short, highly conserved patterns in a collection of unaligned DNA or protein sequences. Discriminative motif finding algorithms aim to i...
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...

Signal finding (pattern discovery) in biological sequences is a fundamental problem in both computer science and molecular biology. Many approaches have been proposed for extract...
Choosing the right representation for a problem is important. In this article we introduce a linear genetic programming approach for motif discovery in protein families, and we al...
