Background: Advances in automated DNA sequencing technology have accelerated the generation of metagenomic DNA sequences, especially environmental ribosomal RNA gene (rDNA) sequen...
Mitochondria, besides their central role in energy metabolism, have recently been found to be involved in a number of basic processes of cell life and to contribute to the pathoge...
Background: The post-genomic era is characterised by a torrent of biological information flooding the public databases. As a direct consequence, similarity searches starting with ...
