A New Approach for Tree Alignment Based on Local Re-Optimization
Multiple sequence alignment is the most fundamental task in bioinformatics and computational biology. In this paper, we present a new algorithm to conduct multiple sequences align...

Improved Phylogenetic Motif Detection Using Parsimony
We have recently demonstrated (La et al, Proteins, 58:2005) that sequence fragments approximating the overall familial phylogeny, called phylogenetic motifs (PMs), represent a pro...

A database of phylogenetically atypical genes in archaeal and bacterial genomes, identified using the DarkHorse algorithm
Background: The process of horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is believed to be widespread in Bacteria and Archaea, but little comparative data is available addressing its occurrence ...

RIO: Analyzing proteomes by automated phylogenomics using resampled inference of orthologs
Background: When analyzing protein sequences using sequence similarity searches, orthologous sequences (that diverged by speciation) are more reliable predictors of a new protein&...

Whole Genome Phylogeny Based on Clustered Signature String Composition
Peptide compositions constructed out of whole sets of protein sequences can be used as species signatures for phylogenetic analysis. To account for point mutations, an amino acid ...
