On the Role of Local Matching for Efficient Semi-supervised Protein Sequence Classification
Recent studies in protein sequence analysis have leveraged the power of unlabeled data. For example, the profile and mismatch neighborhood kernels have shown significant improveme...

Linear array of conserved sequence motifs to discriminate protein subfamilies: study on pyridine nucleotide-disulfide reductases
Background: The pyridine nucleotide disulfide reductase (PNDR) is a large and heterogeneous protein family divided into two classes (I and II), which reflect the divergent evoluti...

MALISAM: a database of structurally analogous motifs in proteins
MALISAM (manual alignments for structurally analogous motifs) represents the first database containing pairs of structural analogs and their alignments. To find reliable analogs, ...

Suboptimal Alignments Improve the Detection of Weak Homologs in Sequence Database Searches
PSI-BLAST remains one of the popular tools for searching remote homologs in sequence databases. We recently demonstrated that hybrid alignment can function as the alignment core f...

Detection of distant evolutionary relationships between protein families using theory of sequence profile-profile comparison
Background: Detection of common evolutionary origin (homology) is a primary means of inferring protein structure and function. At present, comparison of protein families represent...
