Stochastic Motif Extraction Using Hidden Markov Model
In this paper, westudy the application of an ttMM(hidden Markov model) to the problem of representing protein sequencesby a stochastic motif. Astochastic protein motif represents ...

Gapped alignment of protein sequence motifs through Monte Carlo optimization of a hidden Markov model
Background: Certain protein families are highly conserved across distantly related organisms and belong to large and functionally diverse superfamilies. The patterns of conservati...

Identification and characterization of subfamily-specific signatures in a large protein superfamily by a hidden Markov model app
Background: Most profile and motif databases strive to classify protein sequences into a broad spectrum of protein families. The next step of such database studies should include ...
