A novel method to model and predict the location and orientation of alpha helices in membrane- spanning proteins is presented. It is based on a hidden Markov model (HMM) with an a...

Background: The Medium-chain Dehydrogenases/Reductases (MDR) form a protein superfamily whose size and complexity defeats traditional means of subclassification; it currently has ...
A new statistical model for DNA considers a sequence to be a mixture of regions with little structure and regions that are approximate repeats of other subsequences, i.e. instance...

Multiple sequence alignment of distantly related viral proteins remains a challenge to all currently available alignment methods. The hidden Markovmodel approach offers a new,flex...
We present a novel distance-based algorithm for evolutionary tree reconstruction. Our algorithm reconstructs the topology of a tree with n leaves in O(n2 ) time using O(n) working...
