Computational analysis of LexA regulons in CyanobacteriaShan Li
Bioinformatics Research Center, Department of Bioinformatics and Genomics, The University of North Carolina at Charlotte, Charlotte, NC 28223, USA
BMC Genomics 11:527. 2010..PCC 6803 might have distinct functions other than the regulation of the SOS response. To gain a general understanding of the functions of LexA and its evolution in cyanobacteria, we conducted the current study...
Rapid DNA barcoding analysis of large datasets using the composition vector methodKa Hou Chu
Department of Biology, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong, PR China
BMC Bioinformatics 10:S8. 2009..Here, we further explored the grouping effectiveness of the CV method in large DNA barcode datasets (COI, 18S and 16S rRNA) from a variety of organisms, including birds, fishes, nematodes and crustaceans...
Computational prediction of cAMP receptor protein (CRP) binding sites in cyanobacterial genomesMinli Xu
Department of Bioinformatics and Genomics, Bioinformatics Research Center, The University of North Carolina at Charlotte, Charlotte, NC 28233, USA
BMC Genomics 10:23. 2009..PCC 6803 and Anabaena sp. PCC 7120; therefore, a systematic genome-scale study of the potential CRP target genes and binding sites in cyanobacterial genomes is urgently needed...
Genome-wide de novo prediction of cis-regulatory binding sites in prokaryotesShaoqiang Zhang
Department of Bioinformatics and Genomics, Bioinformatics Research Center, The University of North Carolina at Charlotte, Charlotte, NC 28223, USA
Nucleic Acids Res 37:e72. 2009..When compared with the prior state-of-the-art algorithms, our algorithm outperforms them in both prediction sensitivity and specificity...
A novel alignment-free method for comparing transcription factor binding site motifsMinli Xu
Department of Bioinformatics and Genomics, University of North Carolina at Charlotte, Charlotte, North Carolina, United States of America
PLoS ONE 5:e8797. 2010..In some applications, alignment-free methods might be preferred; however, few such methods with high accuracy have been described...
Unifying mechanical and thermodynamic descriptions across the thioredoxin protein familyJames M Mottonen
Department of Physics and Optical Science, University of North Carolina at Charlotte, Charlotte, NC 28223, USA
Proteins 75:610-27. 2009..The results taken together demonstrate that small-scale structural variations are amplified into discernible global differences by propagating mechanical couplings through the H-bond network...
