Identification of Divergent Functions in Homologous Proteins by Induction over Conserved Modules
Homologousproteins do not necessarily exhibit identical biochemicalfunction. Despitethis fact, local or global sequence similarity is widely used as an indication of functional id...

A Hidden Markov Model for Predicting Transmembrane Helices in Protein Sequences
A novel method to model and predict the location and orientation of alpha helices in membrane- spanning proteins is presented. It is based on a hidden Markov model (HMM) with an a...

Prediction of Signal Peptides and Signal Anchors by a Hidden Markov Model
A hidden Markov model of signal peptides has been developed. It contains submodels for the N-terminal part, the hydrophobic region, and the region around the cleavage site. For kn...
