Improving Multi-Relief for Detecting Specificity Residues from Multiple Sequence Alignments
A challenging problem in bioinformatics is the detection of residues that account for protein function specificity, not only in order to gain deeper insight in the nature of functi...

Truncation of protein sequences for fast profile alignment with application to subcellular localization
We have recently found that the computation time of homology-based subcellular localization can be substantially reduced by aligning profiles up to the cleavage site positions of s...

GUIDANCE: a web server for assessing alignment confidence scores
Evaluating the accuracy of multiple sequence alignment (MSA) is critical for virtually every comparative sequence analysis that uses an MSA as input. Here we present the GUIDANCE ...
