The 3D conformation of a protein may be compactly represented in a symmetrical, square, boolean matrix of pairwise, inter-residue contacts, or "contact map". The contact...

Background: Contact maps have been extensively used as a simplified representation of protein structures. They capture most important features of a protein's fold, being pref...

Abstract. The purpose of this work is to demonstrate that it is possible to cluster contact maps for pairs of alpha helices such that each of the clusters corresponds to a group of...
Understanding the protein folding mechanism remains a grand challenge in structural biology. In the past several years, computational theories in molecular dynamics have been empl...
Abstract. Inter-residue contacts map prediction is one of the most important intermediate steps to the protein folding problem. In this paper, we focus on protein inter-residue con...
