Background: Remote homology detection is a challenging problem in Bioinformatics. Arguably, profile Hidden Markov Models (pHMMs) are one of the most successful approaches in addre...
Background: Biological evolution conserves protein residues that are important for structure and function. Both protein stability and function often require a certain degree of st...
