Protein Image Alignment via Piecewise Affine Transformations
Abstract We present a new approach for aligning families of 2D gels. Instead of choosing one of the gels as reference and performing pairwise alignment, we construct an ideal gel t...

Environment specific substitution tables for thermophilic proteins
Background: Thermophilic organisms are able to live at high temperatures ranging from 50 to > 100°C. Their proteins must be sufficiently stable to function under these extreme...

An improved method for identifying functionally linked proteins using phylogenetic profiles
Background: Phylogenetic profiles record the occurrence of homologs of genes across fully sequenced organisms. Proteins with similar profiles are typically components of protein c...
