The avMlability of large EST(Expressed Sequence Tag)databases has led to a revolution in the waynew genes are cloned. Difficulties arise, however,due to high error rates and redun...
Background: Computational analysis of metagenomes requires the taxonomical assignment of the genome contigs assembled from DNA reads of environmental samples. Because of the diver...

Background: Most known eukaryotic genomes contain mobile copied elements called transposable elements. In some species, these elements account for the majority of the genome seque...
The prediction of gene function from genome sequences is one of the main issues in Bioinformatics. Most computational approaches are based on the similarity between sequences to in...
