DNA mixture interpretation remains one of the major challenges in forensic DNA analysis. DNA mixture samples are inherently complex due to several factors including the variations in the quantity of DNA, the presence of non-allelic artifactual peaks ...
Sequence based DNA-binding protein (DBP) prediction is a widely studied biological problem. Sliding windows on position specific substitution matrices (PSSMs) rows predict DNA-binding residues well on known DBPs but the same models cannot be applied ...
Despite the importance of sperm DNA to human reproduction, currently no method exists to assess individual sperm DNA quality prior to clinical selection. Traditionally, skilled clinicians select sperm based on a variety of morphological and motility ...
Modeling in-vivo protein-DNA binding is not only fundamental for further understanding of the regulatory mechanisms, but also a challenging task in computational biology. Deep-learning based methods have succeed in modeling in-vivo protein-DNA bindin...
DNA nanorobots have emerged as new tools for nanomedicine with the potential to ameliorate the delivery and anticancer efficacy of various drugs. DNA nanostructures have been considered one of the most promising nanocarriers. In the present study, we...
