Genome comparison using Gene Ontology (GO) with statistical testing
Background: Automated comparison of complete sets of genes encoded in two genomes can provide insight on the genetic basis of differences in biological traits between species. Gen...

Evaluation of genomic island predictors using a comparative genomics approach
Background: Genomic islands (GIs) are clusters of genes in prokaryotic genomes of probable horizontal origin. GIs are disproportionately associated with microbial adaptations of m...

Gene Teams with Relaxed Proximity Constraint
Functionally related genes co-evolve, probably due to the strong selection pressure in evolution. Thus we expect that they are present in multiple genomes. Physical proximity amon...

Bidirectional best hit r-window gene clusters
Background: Conserved gene clusters are groups of genes that are located close to one another in the genomes of several species. They tend to code for proteins that have a functio...

Predicting transcription factor binding sites using local over-representation and comparative genomics
Background: Identifying cis-regulatory elements is crucial to understanding gene expression, which highlights the importance of the computational detection of overrepresented tran...
