Ekinci, Ozge (2022-12-15)Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is a highly profitable crop due to its high dietary protein content and fiber, critical minerals, and excellent capability to fix atmospheric nitrogen, especially in low-cost food production ...
-
Zhao, Xiaoyan (2012-02-14)Understanding the mechanisms that regulate gene expression is a major challenge in biology. One of the most important tasks in this challenge is to identify the transcription factors binding sites (TFBS) in DNA sequences. ...
-
Chen, Haoran (2018-07-31)Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) are crucial to cellular function, yet researchers still have much to discover about their mechanisms. At the molecular level, two new computational tools are proposed in this study to ...
-
Lu, Yue (2009-05-15)Multiple sequence alignment is an important bioinformatics problem, with applications in diverse types of biological analysis, such as structure prediction, phylogenetic analysis and critical sites identification. In recent ...
-
Chin, See Loong (Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)The goals of gene prediction using computational approaches are to determine gene location and the corresponding functionality of the coding region. A subset of gene prediction is the gene structure prediction problem, ...
-
Wu, I Fan (2021-06-04)Following classical genetic approaches to understanding gene function, high-throughput phenotyping methods have emerged as a new way of studying gene functions, especially in microorganisms, which are highly amenable to ...
-
Park, Hyun Jung (2009-05-15)Phylogenetic analysis is used in all branches of biology by inferring evolutionary trees. Applications include designing more effective drugs, tracing the transmission of deadly viruses, and guiding conservation and ...

Sze, Sing-Hoi; Tarone, Aaron M (BioMed Central, 2014-07-14)The recent advance of high-throughput sequencing makes it feasible to study entire transcriptomes through the application of de novo sequence assembly algorithms. While a popular strategy is to first construct an intermediate ...
-
Wang, Yijie (2015-08-12)Advances in high-throughput techniques have enabled researchers to produce large-scale data on molecular interactions. Systematic analysis of these large-scale interactome datasets based on their graph representations has ...
-
Sun, Jing (Texas A&M University, 2007-09-17)AC/DC adapters mostly employ two-stage topology: Power Factor Correction (PFC) pre-regulation stage followed by an isolated DC/DC converter stage. Low power AC/DC adapters require a small size to be competitive. Among their ...
-
Zhu, Shaowen (2019-07-18)In the research areas about proteins, it is always a significant topic to detect the sequencestructure-function relationship. Fundamental questions remain for this topic: How much could current data alone reveal deep ...
-
Wei, Ning (2009-05-15)Bioinformatics resources should provide simple and flexible support for genomics research. A huge amount of gene mapping data, micro-array expression data, expressed sequence tags (EST), BAC sequence data and genome sequence ...
-
Huang, Xiuzhen (Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)According to the theory of NPcompleteness, many problems that have important realworld applications are NPhard. This excludes the possibility of solving them in polynomial time unless P=NP. A number of approaches have been ...
