A multi-expert system for the automatic detection of protein domains from sequence information
We describe a novel method for detecting the domain structure of a protein from sequence information alone. The method is based on analyzing multiple sequence alignments that are ...

The PD-(D/E)XK superfamily revisited: identification of new members among proteins involved in DNA metabolism and functional pre
Background: The PD-(D/E)XK nuclease superfamily, initially identified in type II restriction endonucleases and later in many enzymes involved in DNA recombination and repair, is o...

Variation in structural location and amino acid conservation of functional sites in protein domain families
Background: The functional sites of a protein present important information for determining its cellular function and are fundamental in drug design. Accordingly, accurate methods...

IgTM: An algorithm to predict transmembrane domains and topology in proteins
Background: Due to their role of receptors or transporters, membrane proteins play a key role in many important biological functions. In our work we used Grammatical Inference (GI...

Constrained Fisher Scores Derived from Interaction Profile Hidden Markov Models Improve Protein to Protein Interaction Predictio
Protein-protein interaction plays critical roles in cellular functions. In this work, we propose a computational method to predict protein-protein interaction by using support vec...
