Accelerated probabilistic inference of RNA structure evolution
Background: Pairwise stochastic context-free grammars (Pair SCFGs) are powerful tools for evolutionary analysis of RNA, including simultaneous RNA sequence alignment and secondary...

Automated functional classification of experimental and predicted protein structures
Background: Proteins that are similar in sequence or structure may perform different functions in nature. In such cases, function cannot be inferred from sequence or structural si...

Local Alignment of RNA Sequences with Arbitrary Scoring Schemes
Abstract. Local similarity is an important tool in comparative analysis of biological sequences, and is therefore well studied. In particular, the Smith-Waterman technique and its ...

Species-specific analysis of protein sequence motifs using mutual information
Background: Protein sequence motifs are by definition short fragments of conserved amino acids, often associated with a specific function. Accordingly protein sequence profiles de...

Pairwise statistical significance of local sequence alignment using multiple parameter sets
Background: Accurate estimation of statistical significance of a pairwise alignment is an important problem in sequence comparison. Recently, a comparative study of pairwise stati...
