Background: Transcription factors (TFs) are key regulatory proteins that enhance or repress the transcriptional rate of their target genes by binding to specific promoter regions ...
Background: A widely-used approach for discovering functional and physical interactions among proteins involves phylogenetic profile comparisons (PPCs). Here, proteins with simila...
Background: Coalescent simulations have proven very useful in many population genetics studies. In order to arrive to meaningful conclusions, it is important that these simulation...
Background: The relationship between divergence of amino-acid sequence and divergence of function among homologous proteins is complex. The assumption that homologs share function...
