Background: The ab initio protein folding problem consists of predicting protein tertiary structure from a given amino acid sequence by minimizing an energy function; it is one of...
Finding recurring residue packing patterns, or spatial motifs, that characterize protein structural families is an important problem in bioinformatics. To this end, we apply a nov...

Background: Prediction of protein solvent accessibility, also called accessible surface area (ASA) prediction, is an important step for tertiary structure prediction directly from...
A model of hydrophobic collapse, which is treated as the driving force for protein folding, is presented. This model is the superposition of three models commonly used in protein ...

We describe and demonstrate the effectiveness of a method of predicting protein secondary structures, sheet regions in particular, using a class of stochastic tree grammars as rep...
