The amino acid sequence of a protein is the key to understanding its structure and ultimately its function in the cell. This paper addresses the fundamental issue of encoding amin...
2D electrophoresis is a well known method for protein separation which is extremely useful in the field of proteomics. Each spot in the image represents a protein accumulation an...
— Living cells are characterized by small populations of key molecular components that have large stochastic noise associated with them. Various gene network motifs exists within...
Abstract—The exact relationship between protein active centers and protein functions is unclear even after decades of intensive study. To improve the functional prediction abilit...
We introduce a method for comparing protein structures using the notion of residue contexts based on protein Cα-atom backbones. The residue context is derived from the set of vec...
The examination of straightforwardly definable discrete structures in nucleic acids and proteins turned out to be perhaps the most important development in our present knowledge a...
Here we present a simple method based on graph spectral properties to automatically partition multi-domain proteins into individual domains. The identification of structural domain...
Proteins can be grouped into families according to some features such as hydrophobicity, composition or structure, aiming to establish common biological functions. This paper pres...
