Phylogenetic Motif Detection by Expectation-Maximization on Evolutionary Mixtures
ct The preferential conservation of transcription factor binding sites implies that non-coding sequence data from related species will prove a powerful asset to motif discovery. We...

Predicting functional sites with an automated algorithm suitable for heterogeneous datasets
Background: In a previous report (La et al., Proteins, 2005), we have demonstrated that the identification of phylogenetic motifs, protein sequence fragments conserving the overal...

Detecting Sporadic Recombination in DNA Alignments with Hidden Markov Models
Conventional phylogenetic tree estimation methods assume that all sites in a DNA multiple alignment have the same evolutionary history. This assumption is violated in data sets fro...

c-REDUCE: Incorporating sequence conservation to detect motifs that correlate with expression
Background: Computational methods for characterizing novel transcription factor binding sites search for sequence patterns or "motifs" that appear repeatedly in genomic ...

A mutation degree model for the identification of transcriptional regulatory elements
Background: Current approaches for identifying transcriptional regulatory elements are mainly via the combination of two properties, the evolutionary conservation and the overrepr...
