Background: The identification of local similarities between two protein structures can provide clues of a common function. Many different methods exist for searching for similar ...
Background: Recognition codes for protein-DNA interactions typically assume that the interacting positions contribute additively to the binding energy. While this is known to not ...
Background: With the advent of increasing sequence and structural data, a number of methods have been proposed to locate putative protein binding sites from protein surfaces. Ther...
Despite the availability of a large number of protein– protein interactions (PPIs) in several species, researchers are often limited to using very small subsets in a few organis...
Protein fold recognition is a key step towards inferring the tertiary structures from amino-acid sequences. Complex folds such as those consisting of interacting structural repeat...
