Background: Certain protein families are highly conserved across distantly related organisms and belong to large and functionally diverse superfamilies. The patterns of conservati...
Abstract. Multiple sequence alignment is a key process in today’s biology, and finding a relevant alignment of several sequences is much more challenging than just optimizing so...
Background: The general problem of RNA secondary structure prediction under the widely used thermodynamic model is known to be NP-complete when the structures considered include a...
Abstract. Most software tools in homology recognition on proteins answer only a few specific questions, often leaving not much room for the interpretation of the results. We devel...
Abstract. Recent studies demonstrating the existence of special non-coding "antisense" RNAs used in post-transcriptional gene regulation have received considerable attent...
