Is plant mitochondrial RNA editing a source of phylogenetic incongruence? An answer from in silico and in vivo data sets
Background: In plant mitochondria, the post-transcriptional RNA editing process converts C to U at a number of specific sites of the mRNA sequence and usually restores phylogeneti...

The oligodeoxynucleotide sequences corresponding to never-expressed peptide motifs are mainly located in the non-coding strand
Background: We study the usage of specific peptide platforms in protein composition. Using the pentapeptide as a unit of length, we find that in the universal proteome many pentap...

Information-Theoretic Model of Evolution over Protein Communication Channel
—In this paper, we propose a communication model of evolution and investigate its information-theoretic bounds. The process of evolution is modeled as the retransmission of infor...

WSPMaker: a web tool for calculating selection pressure in proteins and domains using window-sliding
Background: In the study of adaptive evolution, it is important to detect the protein coding sites where natural selection is acting. In general, the ratio of the rate of non-syno...

Computing and visually analyzing mutual information in molecular co-evolution
Background: Selective pressure in molecular evolution leads to uneven distributions of amino acids and nucleotides. In fact one observes correlations among such constituents due t...
