The Expectation Maximization algorithm has been used to identify conserved domains in unaligned proteins only.
The Expectation Maximization algorithm has been used to identify conserved domains in unaligned proteins only. Correct Answer False
This algorithm has been used to identify both conserved domains in unaligned proteins and protein-binding sites in unaligned DNA sequences (Lawrence and Reilly 1990), including sites that may include gaps (Cardon and Stormo 1992). Given are a set of sequences that are expected to have a common sequence pattern and may not be easily recognizable by eye.
