Nowadays, the number of protein sequences being stored in central protein databases from labs all over the world is constantly increasing. From these proteins only a fraction has b...
Background: Structural properties of proteins such as secondary structure and solvent accessibility contribute to three-dimensional structure prediction, not only in the ab initio...

Background: The identification of local similarities between two protein structures can provide clues of a common function. Many different methods exist for searching for similar ...
One of the aims of modern Bioinformatics is to discover the molecular mechanisms that rule the protein operation. This would allow us to understand the complex processes involved i...
Abstract. The hydrophobic-polar (HP) model for protein structure preabstracts the fact that hydrophobic interactions are a dominant force in the protein folding process. This model...
