An intuitionistic approach to scoring DNA sequences against transcription factor binding site motifs
Background: Transcription factors (TFs) control transcription by binding to specific regions of DNA called transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs). The identification of TFBSs ...

DDPIn - Distance and density based protein indexing
Protein structure similarity and classification methods have many applications in protein function prediction and associated fields (e.g. drug discovery). In this paper, we propose...

Local comparison of protein structures highlights cases of convergent evolution in analogous functional sites
Background: We performed an exhaustive search for local structural similarities in an ensemble of non-redundant protein functional sites. With the purpose of finding new examples ...

A discriminative method for protein remote homology detection and fold recognition combining Top-n-grams and latent semantic ana
Background: Protein remote homology detection and fold recognition are central problems in bioinformatics. Currently, discriminative methods based on support vector machine (SVM) ...
