Background: The identification and characterization of interacting domain pairs is an important step towards understanding protein interactions. In the last few years, several met...
Background: It has been repeatedly observed that gene order is rapidly lost in prokaryotic genomes. However, persistent synteny blocks are found when comparing more or less distan...
Background: At intermediate stages of genome assembly projects, when a number of contigs have been generated and their validity needs to be verified, it is desirable to align thes...
Background: Feature selection is a pattern recognition approach to choose important variables according to some criteria in order to distinguish or explain certain phenomena (i.e....
Background: Target identification is important for modern drug discovery. With the advances in the development of molecular docking, potential binding proteins may be discovered b...
