✦ Synopsis
We discuss how methods based on hidden Markov models performed in the fold-recognition section of the CASP2 experiment. Hidden Markov models were built for a representative set of just over 1,000 structures from the Protein Data Bank (PDB). Each CASP2 target sequence was scored against this library of HMMs. In addition, an HMM was built for each of the target sequences and all of the sequences in PDB were scored against that target model, with a good score on both methods indicating a high probability that the target sequence is homologous to the structure. The method worked well in comparison to other methods used at CASP2 for targets of moderate difficulty, where the closest structure in PDB could be aligned to the target with at least 15% residue identity.

There are many proteins that share the same fold but have no clear sequence similarity. To predict the structure of these proteins, so called ''protein fold recognition methods'' have been developed. During the last few years, improvements of protein fold recognition methods have been achieved throu
This study deals with structure class/secondary structure prediction of proteins using hidden Markov models (HMMs). With the proposed method, prediction is performed using HMMs designed so as to represent hierarchicality and periodicity of protein structural features. Secondary structures (partial t
The analysis of routinely collected surveillance data is an important challenge in public health practice. We present a method based on a hidden Markov model for monitoring such time series. The model characterizes the sequence of measurements by assuming that its probability density function depend
The binding of a major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecule to a peptide originating in an antigen is essential to recognizing antigens in immune systems, and it has proved to be important to use computers to predict the peptides that will bind to an MHC molecule.

This paper presents results of blind predictions submitted to the CASP3 protein structure prediction experiment. We made predictions using the SAM-T98 method, an iterative hidden Markov model-based method for constructing protein family profiles. The method is purely sequencebased, using no structur
