Fast and accurate protein substructure searching with simulated annealing and GPUs
Background: Searching a database of protein structures for matches to a query structure, or occurrences of a structural motif, is an important task in structural biology and bioin...

Gapped alignment of protein sequence motifs through Monte Carlo optimization of a hidden Markov model
Background: Certain protein families are highly conserved across distantly related organisms and belong to large and functionally diverse superfamilies. The patterns of conservati...

Weave amino acid sequences for protein secondary structure prediction
Given a known protein sequence, predicting its secondary structure can help understand its three-dimensional (tertiary) structure, i.e., the folding. In this paper, we present an ...

Integrating protein structures and precomputed genealogies in the Magnum database: Examples with cellular retinoid binding prote
Background: When accurate models for the divergent evolution of protein sequences are integrated with complementary biological information, such as folded protein structures, anal...

CLUSS: Clustering of protein sequences based on a new similarity measure
Background: The rapid burgeoning of available protein data makes the use of clustering within families of proteins increasingly important. The challenge is to identify subfamilies...
