Gapped alignment of protein sequence motifs through Monte Carlo optimization of a hidden Markov model
Background: Certain protein families are highly conserved across distantly related organisms and belong to large and functionally diverse superfamilies. The patterns of conservati...

Integrating Sequence and Topology for Efficient and Accurate Detection of Horizontal Gene Transfer
Abstract. One phylogeny-based approach to horizontal gene transfer (HGT) detection entails comparing the topology of a gene tree to that of the species tree, and using their differ...

Very Low Power to Detect Asymmetric Divergence of Duplicated Genes
Abstract. Asymmetric functional divergence of paralogues is a key aspect of the traditional model of evolution following duplication. If one gene continues to perform the ancestral...
