This is intended for the reporting of biologically interesting discoveries using computational techniques. Topics may include sequence motif detection, structural similarities, gene structure prediction, comparative genomics, metabolic pathways and other aspects of computational molecular biology. The new category complements the original papers, reviews and applications notes that are presently published. The description of the analysis can be up to 2 pages long (1000 words) including one/two figures. An abstract is not required. Sequences must be freely available in the database and the results of the analyses should not have been published elsewhere. The paper will be peer-reviewed.
