The transcription factors (TFs) can activate or suppress gene expression by binding to specific sites, hence are crucial regulatory elements for transcription. Recently, series of discriminative motif finders have been tailored to offering promising ...
Identifying discriminative motifs underlying the functionality and evolution of organisms is a major challenge in computational biology. Machine learning approaches such as support vector machines (SVMs) achieve state-of-the-art performances in genom...

Self-organizing map (SOM)-based motif mining, despite being a promising approach for problem solving, mostly fails to offer a consistent interpretation of clusters with respect to the mixed composition of signal and noise in the nodes. The main reaso...
Pummelo (Citrus grandis) is an important fruit crop worldwide because of its nutritional value. To accelerate the pummelo breeding program, it is essential to obtain extensive genetic information and develop relative molecular markers. Here, we obtai...
Polyadenylation is the process of addition of poly(A) tail to mRNA 3' ends. Identification of motifs controlling polyadenylation plays an essential role in improving genome annotation accuracy and better understanding of the mechanisms governing gene...
DNA, beyond its canonical B-form double helix, adopts various alternative conformations, among which the i-motif, emerging in cytosine-rich sequences under acidic conditions, holds significant biological implications in transcription modulation and t...
SUMMARY: Cis-acting mRNA elements play a key role in the regulation of mRNA stability and translation efficiency. Revealing the interactions of these elements and their impact plays a crucial role in understanding the regulation of the mRNA translati...
i-Motifs (iMs), are secondary structures formed in cytosine-rich DNA sequences and are involved in multiple functions in the genome. Although putative iM forming sequences are widely distributed in the human genome, the folding status and strength of...
MOTIVATION: Accurate prediction of RNA subcellular localization plays an important role in understanding cellular processes and functions. Although post-transcriptional processes are governed by trans-acting RNA binding proteins (RBPs) through intera...
