Prediction of transcription factor binding to DNA using rule induction methods
In this study, we seek to develop a predictive model for finding the strength of binding between a particular transcription factor (TF) variant and a particular DNA target variant...

Some statistical properties of regulatory DNA sequences, and their use in predicting regulatory regions in the Drosophila genome
Background: This paper addresses the problem of recognising DNA cis-regulatory modules which are located far from genes. Experimental procedures for this are slow and costly, and ...

fREDUCE: Detection of degenerate regulatory elements using correlation with expression
Background: The precision of transcriptional regulation is made possible by the specificity of physical interactions between transcription factors and their cognate binding sites ...

A discriminative method for protein remote homology detection and fold recognition combining Top-n-grams and latent semantic ana
Background: Protein remote homology detection and fold recognition are central problems in bioinformatics. Currently, discriminative methods based on support vector machine (SVM) ...

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...
