POODLE-L: a two-level SVM prediction system for reliably predicting long disordered regions
TLDR
We developed Prediction Of Order and Disorder by machine LEarning (POODLE-L; L stands for long), the Support Vector Machines (SVMs) based method for predicting long disordered regions using 10 kinds of simple physico-chemical properties of amino acid. Expand

Molecular analysis of zebrafish photolyase/cryptochrome family: two types of cryptochromes present in zebrafish
Cryptochromes (CRY), members of the DNA photolyase/cryptochrome protein family, regulate the circadian clock in animals and plants. Two types of animal CRYs are known, mammalian CRY and Drosophila… Expand

A heterodimeric DNA polymerase: evidence that members of Euryarchaeota possess a distinct DNA polymerase.
We describe here a DNA polymerase family highly conserved in Euryarchaeota, a subdomain of Archaea. The DNA polymerase is composed of two proteins, DP1 and DP2. Sequence analysis showed that… Expand
