Young et al. [14] showed that due to gene length bias the popular Fisher Exact Test should not be used to study the association between a group of differentially expressed (DE) ge...
Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) are structured regions in bacterial and archaeal genomes, which are part of an adaptive immune system against pha...
Many microbes associate with higher eukaryotes and impact their vitality. In order to engineer microbiomes for host benefit, we must understand the rules of community assembly and...

A fundamental problem in the study of phylogenetic networks is how to determine whether a phylogenetic network displays a phylogenetic tree or not. We develop a quadratic-time alg...

Identifying phase information is biomedically important due to the association of complex haplotype effects, such as compound heterozygosity, with disease. As recent next-generat...
Background: Paralog reduction, the loss of duplicate genes after whole genome duplication (WGD) is a pervasive process. Whether this loss proceeds gene by gene or through deletion...
Abstract. Since the first emergence of protein-protein interaction networks, more than a decade ago, they have been viewed as static scaffolds of the signaling-regulatory events ...
We develop a novel and general approach to estimating the accuracy of protein multiple sequence alignments without knowledge of a reference alignment, and use our approach to addre...

Abstract. Lateral gene transfer (LGT) is a common mechanism of nonvertical evolution where genetic material is transferred between two more or less distantly related organisms. It ...
Signaling networks are essential for cells to control processes such as growth and response to stimuli. Although many “omic” data sources are available to probe signaling pathw...
