Background: Orthology is one of the cornerstones of gene function prediction. Dividing the phylogenetic relations between genes into either orthologs or paralogs is however an ove...
Background: At intermediate stages of genome assembly projects, when a number of contigs have been generated and their validity needs to be verified, it is desirable to align thes...
Background: Target identification is important for modern drug discovery. With the advances in the development of molecular docking, potential binding proteins may be discovered b...
Background: Recent progresses in genotyping technologies allow the generation high-density genetic maps using hundreds of thousands of genetic markers for each DNA sample. The ava...
