Identification of physicochemical selective pressure on protein encoding nucleotide sequences
Background: Statistical methods for identifying positively selected sites in protein coding regions are one of the most commonly used tools in evolutionary bioinformatics. However...

Truncation of protein sequences for fast profile alignment with application to subcellular localization
We have recently found that the computation time of homology-based subcellular localization can be substantially reduced by aligning profiles up to the cleavage site positions of s...

A Comparison of Sequence Kernels for Localization Prediction of Transmembrane Proteins
Abstract— We applied Support Vector Machines to the prediction of the subcellular localization of transmembrane proteins, and compared the performance of different sequence kerne...

A structural study for the optimisation of functional motifs encoded in protein sequences
Background: A large number of PROSITE patterns select false positives and/or miss known true positives. It is possible that
