Homology Detection via Family Pairwise Search
The function of an unknown biological sequence can often be accurately inferred by identifying sequences homologous to the original sequence. Given a query set of known homologs, ...

ProFAT: a web-based tool for the functional annotation of protein sequences
Background: The functional annotation of proteins relies on published information concerning their close and remote homologues in sequence databases. Evidence for remote sequence ...

A discriminative method for family-based protein remote homology detection that combines inductive logic programming and proposi
Background: Remote homology detection is a hard computational problem. Most approaches have trained computational models by using either full protein sequences or multiple sequenc...

Estimates of statistical significance for comparison of individual positions in multiple sequence alignments
Background: Profile-based analysis of multiple sequence alignments (MSA) allows for accurate comparison of protein families. Here, we address the problems of detecting statistical...

SIMPROT: Using an empirically determined indel distribution in simulations of protein evolution
Background: General protein evolution models help determine the baseline expectations for the evolution of sequences, and they have been extensively useful in sequence analysis an...
