A tale of two symmetrical tails: Structural and functional characteristics of palindromes in proteins
Background: It has been previously shown that palindromic sequences are frequently observed in proteins. However, our knowledge about their evolutionary origin and their possible ...

A tree-based conservation scoring method for short linear motifs in multiple alignments of protein sequences
Background: The structure of many eukaryotic cell regulatory proteins is highly modular. They are assembled from globular domains, segments of natively disordered polypeptides and...

UVPAR: fast detection of functional shifts in duplicate genes
Background: The imprint of natural selection on gene sequences is often difficult to detect. A plethora of methods have been devised to detect genetic changes due to selective pro...

A phylogenomic gene cluster resource: the Phylogenetically Inferred Groups (PhIGs) database
Background: We present here the PhIGs database, a phylogenomic resource for sequenced genomes. Although many methods exist for clustering gene families, very few attempt to create...
