Background: Insertions and deletions (indels) represent a common type of sequence variations, which are less studied and pose many important biological questions. Recent research ...
Background: Viruses of the Bunyaviridae have segmented negative-stranded RNA genomes and several of them cause significant disease. Many partial sequences have been obtained from ...
Background: Structural alignment is an important step in protein comparison. Well-established methods exist for solving this problem under the assumption that the structures under...
