Background: The number of sequences compiled in many genome projects is growing exponentially, but most of them have not been characterized experimentally. An automatic annotation...
Background: The alignment of multiple protein sequences is a fundamental step in the analysis of biological data. It has traditionally been applied to analyzing protein families f...
Background: The PD-(D/E)XK nuclease superfamily, initially identified in type II restriction endonucleases and later in many enzymes involved in DNA recombination and repair, is o...
Recognition of a protein’s fold provides valuable information about its function. While many sequence-based homology prediction methods exist, an important challenge remains: tw...
—Cytochrome b561 (Cyt-b561) proteins play important functions in plants such as anti-toxin defense reactions, growth and development, and prevention of damage to plants from exce...
