Background: Protein structure prediction methods provide accurate results when a homologous protein is predicted, while poorer predictions are obtained in the absence of homologou...
Background: Contact order is a topological descriptor that has been shown to be correlated with several interesting protein properties such as protein folding rates and protein tr...
