Improving model construction of profile HMMs for remote homology detection through structural alignment
Background: Remote homology detection is a challenging problem in Bioinformatics. Arguably, profile Hidden Markov Models (pHMMs) are one of the most successful approaches in addre...

High Performance Database Searching with HMMer on FPGAs
1 Profile Hidden Markov Models (profile HMMs) are used as a popular bioinformatics tool for sensitive database searching, e.g. a set of not annotated protein sequences is compared...

Exploiting conserved structure for faster annotation of non-coding RNAs without loss of accuracy
Motivation: Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs)--functional RNA molecules not coding for proteins--are grouped into hundreds of families of homologs. To find new members of an ncRNA gene fam...

Combining pairwise sequence similarity and support vector machines for remote protein homology detection
One key element in understanding the molecular machinery of the cell is to understand the meaning, or function, of each protein encoded in the genome. A very successful means of i...

Identification and characterization of subfamily-specific signatures in a large protein superfamily by a hidden Markov model app
Background: Most profile and motif databases strive to classify protein sequences into a broad spectrum of protein families. The next step of such database studies should include ...
