Discrete profile alignment via constrained information bottleneck
Amino acid profiles, which capture position-specific mutation probabilities, are a richer encoding of biological sequences than the individual sequences themselves. However, profi...

Recognition Sequences in the Restriction Endonucleases
The nature of specific protein-nucleic acid interaction between restriction endonucleases (RE) and their recognition sequences (RS) was studied by bioinformatics methods. It was f...

Folding Protein-Like Structures with Open L-Systems
Abstract. Proteins, under native conditions, fold to specific 3D structures according to their 1D amino acid sequence, which in turn is defined by the genetic code. The specific...
