A Feature-Based Approach to Modeling Protein-DNA Interactions
Transcription factor (TF) binding to its DNA target site is a fundamental regulatory interaction. The most common model used to represent TF binding specificities is a position spe...

Commensurate distances and similar motifs in genetic congruence and protein interaction networks in yeast
Background: In a genetic interaction, the phenotype of a double mutant differs from the combined phenotypes of the underlying single mutants. When the single mutants have no growt...
