Background: A structure alignment method based on a local geometric property is presented and its performance is tested in pairwise and multiple structure alignments. In this appr...
Background: Searching a database of protein structures for matches to a query structure, or occurrences of a structural motif, is an important task in structural biology and bioin...
Background: Folding of a protein into its three dimensional structure is influenced by both local and global interactions within a protein. Higher order residue interactions, like...
Background: The hierarchical and partially redundant nature of protein structures justifies the definition of frequently occurring conformations of short fragments as `states'...
Background: An algorithm is presented to compute a multiple structure alignment for a set of proteins and to generate a consensus (pseudo) protein which captures common substructu...
