EVEREST: automatic identification and classification of protein domains in all protein sequences
Background: Proteins are comprised of one or several building blocks, known as domains. Such domains can be classified into families according to their evolutionary origin. Wherea...

Connect the dots: exposing hidden protein family connections from the entire sequence tree
Motivation: Mapping of remote evolutionary links is a classic computational problem of much interest. Relating protein families allows for functional and structural inference on u...

Reuse of structural domain-domain interactions in protein networks
Background: Protein interactions are thought to be largely mediated by interactions between structural domains. Databases such as iPfam relate interactions in protein structures t...

Enhanced protein domain discovery using taxonomy
Background: It is well known that different species have different protein domain repertoires, and indeed that some protein domains are kingdom specific. This information has not ...

Predicting conserved protein motifs with Sub-HMMs
Background: Profile HMMs (hidden Markov models) provide effective methods for modeling the conserved regions of protein families. A limitation of the resulting domain models is th...
