BayesMD: Flexible Biological Modeling for Motif Discovery
We present BayesMD, a Bayesian Motif Discovery model with several new features. Three different types of biological a priori knowledge are built into the framework in a modular fa...

Evaluation of phylogenetic footprint discovery for predicting bacterial cis-regulatory elements and revealing their evolution
Background: The detection of conserved motifs in promoters of orthologous genes (phylogenetic footprints) has become a common strategy to predict cis-acting regulatory elements. S...

Incorporating Knowledge of Secondary Structures in a L-System-Based Encoding for Protein Folding
An encoding scheme for protein folding on lattice models, inspired by parametric L-systems, was proposed. The encoding incorporates problem domain knowledge in the form of predesig...

Frequency Distribution of TATA Box and Extension Sequences on Human Promoters
Background: TATA box is one of the most important transcription factor binding sites. But the exact sequences of TATA box are still not very clear. Results: In this study, we cond...

Finding regulatory elements and regulatory motifs: a general probabilistic framework
Over the last two decades a large number of algorithms has been developed for regulatory motif finding. Here we show how many of these algorithms, especially those that model bind...
