Journal ArticleDOI

The FAIR Guiding Principles for scientific data management and stewardship

TL;DR: The FAIR Data Principles as mentioned in this paper are a set of data reuse principles that focus on enhancing the ability of machines to automatically find and use the data, in addition to supporting its reuse by individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI

T-Coffee: A novel method for fast and accurate multiple sequence alignment.

TL;DR: A new method for multiple sequence alignment that provides a dramatic improvement in accuracy with a modest sacrifice in speed as compared to the most commonly used alternatives but avoids the most serious pitfalls caused by the greedy nature of this algorithm.
Journal ArticleDOI

PRALINE: a multiple sequence alignment toolbox that integrates homology-extended and secondary structure information.

TL;DR: PRALINE can integrate information from database homology searches to generate a homology-extended multiple alignment and provides a choice of seven different secondary structure prediction programs that can be used individually or in combination as a consensus for integrating structural information into the alignment process.
Journal ArticleDOI

An analysis of protein domain linkers: their classification and role in protein folding

TL;DR: A linker database intended for the rational design of linkers for domain fusion is constructed and two main types of linker were identified; helical and non-helical.
Journal ArticleDOI

A simple and fast secondary structure prediction method using hidden neural networks

TL;DR: A secondary structure prediction method YASPIN that unlike the current state-of-the-art methods utilizes a single neural network for predicting the secondary structure elements in a 7-state local structure scheme and then optimizes the output using a hidden Markov model, which results in providing more information for the prediction.
