PADS: Protein Structure Alignment Using Directional Shape Signatures
A novel approach for similarity search on the protein structure databases is proposed. PADS (Protein Alignment by Directional shape Signatures) incorporates the three dimensional ...

Functional annotation by identification of local surface similarities: a novel tool for structural genomics
Background: Protein function is often dependent on subsets of solvent-exposed residues that may exist in a similar three-dimensional configuration in non homologous proteins thus ...

Some statistical properties of regulatory DNA sequences, and their use in predicting regulatory regions in the Drosophila genome
Background: This paper addresses the problem of recognising DNA cis-regulatory modules which are located far from genes. Experimental procedures for this are slow and costly, and ...

ElliPro: a new structure-based tool for the prediction of antibody epitopes
Background: Reliable prediction of antibody, or B-cell, epitopes remains challenging yet highly desirable for the design of vaccines and immunodiagnostics. A correlation between a...

Local comparison of protein structures highlights cases of convergent evolution in analogous functional sites
Background: We performed an exhaustive search for local structural similarities in an ensemble of non-redundant protein functional sites. With the purpose of finding new examples ...
