This workfocuses on the inference of evolutionary relationships in protein superfamilies, and the uses of these relationships to identify keypositions in the structure, to infer a...
Abstract. This paper presents an algorithm to detect lateral gene transfer (LGT) on the basis of pairwise evolutionary distances. The prediction is made from a likelihood ratio der...
