What can we learn from noncoding regions of similarity between genomes?
Background: In addition to known protein-coding genes, large amounts of apparently non-coding sequence are conserved between the human and mouse genomes. It seems reasonable to as...

Estimates of statistical significance for comparison of individual positions in multiple sequence alignments
Background: Profile-based analysis of multiple sequence alignments (MSA) allows for accurate comparison of protein families. Here, we address the problems of detecting statistical...

Evolutionary Sequence Modeling for Discovery of Peptide Hormones
There are currently a large number of ‘‘orphan’’ G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) whose endogenous ligands (peptide hormones) are unknown. Identification of these pepti...

Phylogenetic reconstruction of ancestral character states for gene expression and mRNA splicing data
Background: As genomes evolve after speciation, gene content, coding sequence, gene expression, and splicing all diverge with time from ancestors with close relatives. A minimum e...

CisOrtho: A program pipeline for genome-wide identification of transcription factor target genes using phylogenetic footprinting
Background: All known genomes code for a large number of transcription factors. It is important to develop methods that will reveal how these transcription factors act on a genome...
