Scanning sequences after Gibbs sampling to find multiple occurrences of functional elements
Background: Many DNA regulatory elements occur as multiple instances within a target promoter. Gibbs sampling programs for finding DNA regulatory elements de novo can be prohibiti...

Prediction of the binding affinities of peptides to class II MHC using a regularized thermodynamic model
Background: The binding of peptide fragments of extracellular peptides to class II MHC is a crucial event in the adaptive immune response. Each MHC allotype generally binds a dist...
