Protein function prediction is an active area of research in bioinformatics. And yet, transfer of annotation on the basis of sequence or structural similarity remains widely used ...
Background: Most gene finders score candidate gene models with state-based methods, typically HMMs, by combining local properties (coding potential, splice donor and acceptor patt...

The Gene Ontology (GO) is a controlled vocabulary of terms to describe protein functions. It also includes a hierarchical description of the relationships among the terms in the f...
Background: The large amount of completely sequenced genomes allows genomic context analysis to predict reliable functional associations between prokaryotic proteins. Major method...
