Prioritizing missense variants for further experimental investigation is a key challenge in current sequencing studies for exploring complex and Mendelian diseases. A large number of in silico tools have been employed for the task of...
Predicting the structure of protein–protein complexes using docking approaches is a difficult problem whose major challenges include identifying correct solutions, and properly dealing with molecular flexibility and conformational changes....
github.com - The mmgenome toolbox enables reproducible extraction of individual genomes from metagenomes. It builds on the multi-metagenome concept, but wraps most of the process of extracting genomes in simple R functions. Thereby making the whole...
Bacterial comparative genomics, driven by bioinformatics, continues to unravel the complexities of bacterial life. From combating antibiotic resistance to uncovering the secrets of microbial evolution, this interdisciplinary field holds immense...

Network analysis is any structured technique used to mathematically analyze a circuit (a “network” of interconnected components). The Network analysis provides the ability to quantify associations between individuals, which...
Meaningful analysis of next-generation sequencing (NGS) data, which are produced extensively by genetics and genomics studies, relies crucially on the accurate calling of SNPs and genotypes. Recently developed statistical methods both improve and...
