The loss of previously established genes has been proposed as a major force in evolutionary change. While the sequencing of many new species offers the opportunity to identify case...
Motivation: Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs)--functional RNA molecules not coding for proteins--are grouped into hundreds of families of homologs. To find new members of an ncRNA gene fam...
Motivation: In the last years more than 20 vertebrate genomes have been sequenced, and the rate at which genomic DNA information becomes available is rapidly accelerating. Gene du...
Background: The accurate detection of differentially expressed (DE) genes has become a central task in microarray analysis. Unfortunately, the noise level and experimental variabi...
Probabilistic functional integrated networks are powerful tools with which to draw inferences from high-throughput data. However, network analyses are generally not tailored to spe...
