Background: Selenocysteine and pyrrolysine are the 21st and 22nd amino acids, which are genetically encoded by stop codons. Since a number of microbial genomes have been completel...
Background: Innumerable biological investigations require comparing collections of molecules, cells or organisms to one another with respect to one or more of their properties. Al...
Background: We investigate the empirical complexity of the RNA secondary structure design problem, that is, the scaling of the typical difficulty of the design task for various cl...
Background: Empirical binding models have previously been investigated for the energetics of protein complexation (G models) and for the influence of mutations on complexation (i....
Background: A multiple sequence alignment (MSA) generated for a protein can be used to characterise residues by means of a statistical analysis of single columns. In addition to t...
