Background: Estimators of free energies are routinely used to judge the quality of protein structural models. As these estimators still present inaccuracies, they are frequently e...

Background: Although both conservation and correlated mutation (CM) are important information reflecting the different sorts of context in multiple sequence alignment, most of ali...
Background: Knowledge of transcription factor-DNA binding patterns is crucial for understanding gene transcription. Numerous DNA-binding proteins are annotated as transcription fa...
