Protein Structure Comparison and Alignment Using Residue Contexts
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 meaning of alignment: lessons from structural diversity
Background: Protein structural alignment provides a fundamental basis for deriving principles of functional and evolutionary relationships. It is routinely used for structural cla...

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...

Efficient protein alignment algorithm for protein search
Background: Proteins show a great variety of 3D conformations, which can be used to infer their evolutionary relationship and to classify them into more general groups; therefore ...

PASS2: an automated database of protein alignments organised as structural superfamilies
Background: The functional selection and three-dimensional structural constraints of proteins in nature often relates to the retention of significant sequence similarity between p...
