Searching for evolutionary distant RNA homologs within genomic sequences using partition function posterior probabilities
Background: Identification of RNA homologs within genomic stretches is difficult when pairwise sequence identity is low or unalignable flanking residues are present. In both cases...

Enrichment of homologs in insignificant BLAST hits by co-complex network alignment
Background: Homology is a crucial concept in comparative genomics. The algorithm probably most widely used for homology detection in comparative genomics, is BLAST. Usually a stri...
