Scipio: Using protein sequences to determine the precise exon/intron structures of genes and their orthologs in closely related
Background: For many types of analyses, data about gene structure and locations of non-coding regions of genes are required. Although a vast amount of genomic sequence data is ava...

Globally, unrelated protein sequences appear random
Motivation: To test whether protein folding constraints and secondary structure sequence preferences significantly reduce the space of amino acid words in proteins, we compared th...

A new protein binding pocket similarity measure based on comparison of clouds of atoms in 3D: application to ligand prediction
Background: Predicting which molecules can bind to a given binding site of a protein with known 3D structure is important to decipher the protein function, and useful in drug desi...

H2r: Identification of evolutionary important residues by means of an entropy based analysis of multiple sequence alignments
Background: A multiple sequence alignment (MSA) generated for a protein can be used to characterise residues by means of a statistical analysis of single columns. In addition to t...
