Detection of distant evolutionary relationships between protein families using theory of sequence profile-profile comparison
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Detection of common evolutionary origin (homology) is a primary means of inferring protein structure and function. At present, comparison of protein families represented as sequence profiles is arguably the most effective homology de...
