Three strategies are presented for developing a knowledge-based statistical contact potential from computationally hydrated proteins that may be useful in studies of protein foldi...
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...

Knowing the number of residue contacts in a protein is crucial for deriving constraints useful in modeling protein folding, protein structure, and/or scoring remote homology searc...
Background: Protein-protein interactions are fundamental for the majority of cellular processes and their study is of enormous biotechnological and therapeutic interest. In recent...
Background: Protein topology representations such as residue contact maps are an important intermediate step towards ab initio prediction of protein structure. Although improvemen...
