Abstract--Sequence similarity search is a common and repeated task in molecular biology. The rapid growth of genomic databases leads to the need of speeding up the treatment of thi...
Comparison of 3-dimensional protein folds is a core problem in molecular biology. The Contact Map Overlap (CMO) scheme provides one of the most common measures for protein structur...
The function of an unknown biological sequence can often be accurately inferred by identifying sequences homologous to the original sequence. Given a query set of known homologs, ...
Protein chimerism is a phenomenon involving the combination of multiple ancestral sequences into a single, multi-domain protein through evolution. We propose a novel method for de...
A new method for detecting remote protein homologies is introduced and shown to perform well in classifying protein domains by SCOP superfamily. The method is a variant of support...
