Background: The most common substitution matrices currently used (BLOSUM and PAM) are based on protein sequences with average amino acid distributions, thus they do not represent ...
Background: This paper addresses key biological problems and statistical issues in the analysis of large gene expression data sets that describe systemic temporal response cascade...
Background: In many contexts, researchers need specific primers for all sequences in a family such that each primer set amplifies only its target sequence and none of the others, ...
Background: Machine-learning tools have gained considerable attention during the last few years for analyzing biological networks for protein function prediction. Kernel methods a...
Background: Ontologies such as the Gene Ontology can enable the construction of complex queries over biological information in a conceptual way, however existing systems to do thi...
