Fast detection of common geometric substructure in proteins
We consider the problem of identifying common three-dimensional substructures between proteins. Our method is based on comparing the shape of the α-carbon backbone structures of ...

Improving model construction of profile HMMs for remote homology detection through structural alignment
Background: Remote homology detection is a challenging problem in Bioinformatics. Arguably, profile Hidden Markov Models (pHMMs) are one of the most successful approaches in addre...

Quantification of the variation in percentage identity for protein sequence alignments
Background: Percentage Identity (PID) is frequently quoted in discussion of sequence alignments since it appears simple and easy to understand. However, although there are several...

Clustering of protein families into functional subtypes using Relative Complexity Measure with reduced amino acid alphabets
Background: Phylogenetic analysis can be used to divide a protein family into subfamilies in the absence of experimental information. Most phylogenetic analysis methods utilize mu...
