Knowledge-based annotation of small molecule binding sites in proteins

Ratna R Thangudu, Manoj Tyagi, Benjamin A Shoemaker, Stephen H Bryant, Anna R Panchenko, Thomas Madej BMC Bioinformatics 2010, 11:365 (1 July 2010)

Protein-small molecule interactions can now be predicted with greater accuracy by a new algorithm on the web server IBIS that utilizes inference-by-homology to rank predicted binding sites based on their biological relevance.

Genome adaptation to chemical stress: clues from comparative transcriptomics in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Candida glabrata

Gaëlle Lelandais, Véronique Tanty, Colette Geneix, Catherine Etchebest, Claude Jacq, Frédéric Devaux Genome Biology 2008, 9:R164 (24 November 2008)

Comparative transcriptomics of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Candida glabrata revealed a remarkable conservation of response to drug-induced stress, despite underlying differences in the regulatory networks.

Cross-species comparison of genome-wide expression patterns

Xianghong Zhou, Greg Gibson Genome Biology 2004, 5:232 (21 June 2004)

Recent studies have used cross-species comparisons of expression profiles to annotate gene functions, to draw evolutionary inferences concerning specific biological processes and to study the global properties of expression networks.

JEvTrace: refinement and variations of the evolutionary trace in JAVA

Marcin P Joachimiak, Fred E Cohen Genome Biology 2002, 3:research0077-research0077.12 (26 November 2002)

Protein families and phylogeny represent complex data with statistical outliers and special cases. The JEvTrace implementation of the evolutionary trace method in a JAVA graphical interface allows detailed mining and graphical visualization of evolutionary sequence relationships.

Using orthologous and paralogous proteins to identify specificity determining residues

Leonid A Mirny, Mikhail S Gelfand Genome Biology 2002, 3:preprint0002-preprint0002.20 (19 February 2002)

Functional specificity of proteins is assumed to be conserved among orthologs and to be different among paralogs. We used this assumption to identify the residues that determine specificity of protein-DNA and protein-ligand recognition and present a method to compute the statistical significance of the predictions.
