Local comparison of protein structures highlights cases of convergent evolution in analogous functional sites
Background: We performed an exhaustive search for local structural similarities in an ensemble of non-redundant protein functional sites. With the purpose of finding new examples ...

Projections for fast protein structure retrieval
Background: In recent times, there has been an exponential rise in the number of protein structures in databases e.g. PDB. So, design of fast algorithms capable of querying such d...

Number sequence representation of protein structures based on the second derivative of a folded tetrahedron sequence
A protein is a sequence of amino-acids of length typically less than 1, 000, where there are 20 kinds of amino-acids. In nature, each protein is folded into a well-defined three-d...

A Comparative Study of Parallel Metaheuristics for Protein Structure Prediction on the Computational Grid
A comparative study of parallel metaheuristics executed in grid environments is proposed, having as case study a genetic algorithm, a simulated annealing algorithm and a random se...

Prediction of protein continuum secondary structure with probabilistic models based on NMR solved structures
Background: The structure of proteins may change as a result of the inherent flexibility of some protein regions. We develop and explore probabilistic machine learning methods for...
