Background: Many research results show that the biological systems are composed of functional modules. Members in the same module usually have common functions. This is useful inf...
Background: Profile-profile methods have been used for some years now to detect and align homologous proteins. The best such methods use information from the background distributi...
Background: Profile Hidden Markov Models (HMM) are statistical representations of protein families derived from patterns of sequence conservation in multiple alignments and have b...

Background: An important challenge in eukaryotic gene prediction is accurate identification of alternatively spliced exons. Functional transcripts can go undetected in gene expres...
Background: Protein sequence alignment is one of the basic tools in bioinformatics. Correct alignments are required for a range of tasks including the derivation of phylogenetic t...
