Scipio: using protein sequences to determine the precise exon/intron structures of genes and their orthologs in closely related species.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The central element of each enzyme is the catalytic site, which commonly catalyzes a single biochemical reaction with high specificity. It was unclear to us how often sites that catalyze the same or highly similar reactions evolved on different, i. e. non-homologous protein folds and how similar their 3D pos...
