Background: A relevant problem in drug design is the comparison and recognition of protein binding sites. Binding sites recognition is generally based on geometry often combined w...
In the domain of bioinformatics, the role played in the biological process by proteins, that act as transmitters and receivers of information thus ruling the mechanisms that deter...
We analyzed the structural properties and the local surface environment of surface amino acid residues of proteins using a large, non-redundant dataset of 2383 protein chains in d...
