Multiple sequence alignments are essential in computational sequence and structural analysis, with applications in homology detection, structure modeling, function prediction and ...
Finding recurring residue packing patterns, or spatial motifs, that characterize protein structural families is an important problem in bioinformatics. To this end, we apply a nov...

We describe and demonstrate the effectiveness of a method of predicting protein secondary structures, sheet regions in particular, using a class of stochastic tree grammars as rep...
Background: The wealth of information on protein structure has led to a variety of statistical analyses of the role played by individual amino acid types in the protein fold. In p...
