Background: Protein sequence alignments have become indispensable for virtually any evolutionary, structural or functional study involving proteins. Modern sequence search and com...
Background: Protein structure alignments are usually based on very different techniques to sequence alignments. We propose a method which treats sequence, structure and even combi...
Background: Understanding how proteins fold is essential to our quest in discovering how life works at the molecular level. Current computation power enables researchers to produc...

This paper presents a novel, parallel algorithm for generating top alignments. Top alignments are used for finding internal repeats in biological sequences like proteins and gene...
Background: To infer homology and subsequently gene function, the Smith-Waterman (SW) algorithm is used to find the optimal local alignment between two sequences. When searching s...
