Prof. Frishman (TUM)
Computational Genomics Research Group
We are a reseach group within the Chair of Genome-Oriented Bioinformatcs. We also maintain strong ties with the Institute for Bioinformatics at the German National Center for Research and Environment where a part of the group and some of our Web servers are located.

Content: Protein architecture; structure-related databases; comparison and classification of protein folds; structure-function relationships; prediction of protein structural features from sequence; threading; homology modeling; molecular graphics; structural genomics.
Methods in Genome Analysis.
Content: Gene prediction; prediction of operon structures; isochores; alternative splicing; non-coding RNAs; genomic variants; repeats; pseudogenes.
