Globally, unrelated protein sequences appear random
Motivation: To test whether protein folding constraints and secondary structure sequence preferences significantly reduce the space of amino acid words in proteins, we compared th...

Hierarchical Protein Structure Superposition Using Both Secondary Structure and Atomic Representations
The structural comparison of proteins has become increasingly important as a means to identify protein motifs and fold families. In this paper we present a new algorithm for the c...

MALISAM: a database of structurally analogous motifs in proteins
MALISAM (manual alignments for structurally analogous motifs) represents the first database containing pairs of structural analogs and their alignments. To find reliable analogs, ...

Prediction of glycosylation sites using random forests
Background: Post translational modifications (PTMs) occur in the vast majority of proteins and are essential for function. Prediction of the sequence location of PTMs enhances the...

Protein contact order prediction from primary sequences
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...
