Recognition of motifs in multiple unaligned sequences provides an insight into protein structure and function. The task of discovering these motifs is very challenging because mos...
In this work we propose a parallel algorithm for the efficient extraction of binding-site consensus from genomic sequences. This algorithm, based on an existing approach, extracts...

Background: The discovery of cis-regulatory motifs still remains a challenging task even though the number of sequenced genomes is constantly growing. Computational analyses using...
In this paper we describe an algorithm for the localization of structured models, i.e. sequences of (simple) motifs and distance constraints. It basically combines standard patter...
