Supervised Detection of Conserved Motifs in DNA Sequences with Cosmo

Bembom, Oliver; Keles, Sunduz; Laan, Mark van der - In: Statistical Applications in Genetics and Molecular Biology 6 (2007) 1, pp. 8-8

A number of computational methods have been proposed for identifying transcription factor binding sites from a set of unaligned sequences that are thought to share the motif in question. We here introduce an algorithm, called cosmo, that allows this search to be supervised by specifying a set of...

Theoretical and Methodological Approaches to Understanding Human Migration Patterns and their Utility in Forensic Human Identification Cases

Holobinko, Anastasia - In: Societies 2 (2012) 2, pp. 42-62

Human migration patterns are of interest to scientists representing many fields. Theories have been posited to explain modern human evolutionary expansion, the diversity of human culture, and the motivational factors underlying an individual or group decision to migrate. Although the research...
