Improved profile HMM performance by assessment of critical algorithmic features in SAM and HMMER
Background: Profile hidden Markov model (HMM) techniques are among the most powerful methods for protein homology detection. Yet, the critical features for successful modelling ar...

Improving Remote Homology Detection Using Sequence Properties and Position Specific Scoring Matrices
Current biological sequence comparison tools frequently fail to recognize matches between homologs when sequence similarity is below the twilight zone of less than 25% sequence id...

Clustered Sequence Representation for Fast Homology Search
We present a novel approach to managing redundancy in sequence databanks such as GenBank. We store clusters of near-identical sequences as a representative union-sequence and a se...
