In the half-century since the C-value paradox (the apparent lack of correlation between organismal genome size and morphological complexity) was described, there have been no expli...
Gene duplication and divergence is a major evolutionary force. Despite the growing number of fully sequenced genomes, methods for investigating these events on a genome-wide scale...

Background: Alternative splicing of pre-mature RNA is an important process eukaryotes utilize to increase their repertoire of different protein products. Several types of differen...
Analysis of a newly sequenced bacterial genome starts with identification of protein-coding genes. Functional assignment of proteins requires the exact knowledge of protein N-term...
