Fast Motif Selection for Biological Sequences
—We consider the problem of identifying motifs, recurring or conserved patterns, in the sets of biological sequences. To solve this task, we present new deterministic and exact a...

Discriminative motif discovery in DNA and protein sequences using the DEME algorithm
Background: Motif discovery aims to detect short, highly conserved patterns in a collection of unaligned DNA or protein sequences. Discriminative motif finding algorithms aim to i...

False occurrences of functional motifs in protein sequences highlight evolutionary constraints
Background: False occurrences of functional motifs in protein sequences can be considered as random events due solely to the sequence composition of a proteome. Here we use a nume...
