Genomes are covered with ubiquitous 11 bp periodic patterns, the "class A flexible patterns"
Background: The genomes of prokaryotes and lower eukaryotes display a very strong 11 bp periodic bias in the distribution of their nucleotides. This bias is present throughout a g...

ProfNet, a method to derive profile-profile alignment scoring functions that improves the alignments of distantly related protei
Background: Profile-profile methods have been used for some years now to detect and align homologous proteins. The best such methods use information from the background distributi...

An approach to large scale identification of non-obvious structural similarities between proteins
Background: A new sequence independent bioinformatics approach allowing genome-wide search for proteins with similar three dimensional structures has been developed. By utilizing ...

GOtcha: a new method for prediction of protein function assessed by the annotation of seven genomes
Background: The function of a novel gene product is typically predicted by transitive assignment of annotation from similar sequences. We describe a novel method, GOtcha, for pred...

Design, implementation and evaluation of a practical pseudoknot folding algorithm based on thermodynamics
Background: The general problem of RNA secondary structure prediction under the widely used thermodynamic model is known to be NP-complete when the structures considered include a...
