The PD-(D/E)XK superfamily revisited: identification of new members among proteins involved in DNA metabolism and functional pre
Background: The PD-(D/E)XK nuclease superfamily, initially identified in type II restriction endonucleases and later in many enzymes involved in DNA recombination and repair, is o...

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 ...
