Background: Accurate annotation of translation initiation sites (TISs) is essential for understanding the translation initiation mechanism. However, the reliability of TIS annotat...
Abstract. We evaluated methods of protein classification that use kernels built from BLAST output parameters. Protein sequences were represented as vectors of parameters (e.g. simi...
A novel approach to the detection of genomic repeats is presented in this paper. The technique, dubbed SAGRI (Spectrum Assisted Genomic Repeat Identifier), is based on the spectru...

Background: To meet the needs of gene annotation for newly sequenced organisms, optimized spaced seeds can be implemented into cross-species sequence alignment programs to accurat...
Phylogenetic footprinting is a comparative genomics approach for predicting transcription factor binding sites, where a set of orthologous regulatory regions are compared and short...
