On the Bond Graphs in the Delaunay-Tetrahedra of the Simplicial Decomposition of Spatial Protein Structures
The examination of straightforwardly definable discrete structures in nucleic acids and proteins turned out to be perhaps the most important development in our present knowledge a...

Protein secondary structure prediction for a single-sequence using hidden semi-Markov models
Background: The accuracy of protein secondary structure prediction has been improving steadily towards the 88% estimated theoretical limit. There are two types of prediction algor...

A tale of two symmetrical tails: Structural and functional characteristics of palindromes in proteins
Background: It has been previously shown that palindromic sequences are frequently observed in proteins. However, our knowledge about their evolutionary origin and their possible ...

Variation in structural location and amino acid conservation of functional sites in protein domain families
Background: The functional sites of a protein present important information for determining its cellular function and are fundamental in drug design. Accordingly, accurate methods...

H2r: Identification of evolutionary important residues by means of an entropy based analysis of multiple sequence alignments
Background: A multiple sequence alignment (MSA) generated for a protein can be used to characterise residues by means of a statistical analysis of single columns. In addition to t...
