AREsite: a database for the comprehensive investigation of AU-rich elements
AREsite is an online resource for the detailed investigation of AU-rich elements (ARE) in vertebrate mRNA 30 -untranslated regions (UTRs). AREs are one of the most prominent cis-a...

Predicting conserved protein motifs with Sub-HMMs
Background: Profile HMMs (hidden Markov models) provide effective methods for modeling the conserved regions of protein families. A limitation of the resulting domain models is th...

A reinforced merging methodology for mapping unique peptide motifs in members of protein families
Background: Members of a protein family often have highly conserved sequences; most of these sequences carry identical biological functions and possess similar three-dimensional (...

Genome-scale study of the importance of binding site context for transcription factor binding and gene regulation
Background: The rate of mRNA transcription is controlled by transcription factors that bind to specific DNA motifs in promoter regions upstream of protein coding genes. Recent res...

A Study of Accessible Motifs and RNA Folding Complexity
mRNA molecules are folded in the cells and therefore many of their substrings may actually be inaccessible to protein and microRNA binding. The need to apply an accessability crite...
