There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Research from Mu Gao and Jeffrey Skolnick at the Georgia Institute of Technology has produced DNA-Binding-Domain-Threader (DBD-Threader), a threading-based method "for the prediction of DNA-binding domains and associated DNA-binding protein residues." Applying their computational method genome-wide, they tested more than 18,500 protein sequences and predicted more than 1,600 to have DNA-binding function. When they compared their results to existing GO annotations, they found that about 30 percent of their predictions are new. Links to the article and blog post are below.
