Welcome to MINER: Software for phylogenetic motif identification

Overview:

Phylogenetic motifs are multiple sequence alignment regions that conserve the overall phylogeny of the complete family. Through comparison to structural and biochemical data, we have shown that phylogenetic motifs represent good predictions of functional site regions. MINER is an online implementation of the phylogenetic motif identification algorithm described in (La et al., 2005a).

Requirements:

Any operating system running the latest version of Netscape Navigator, Internet Explorer, Mozilla, Firefox, or Safari (with Java support or the Chime plugin installed for structural visualization).
