Long Proteins with Unique Optimal Foldings in the H-P Model
It is widely accepted that (1) the natural or folded state of proteins is a global energy minimum, and (2) in most cases proteins fold to a unique state determined by their amino ...

A replica exchange Monte Carlo algorithm for protein folding in the HP model
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...

Evolving L-Systems to Capture Protein Structure Native Conformations
Abstract. A protein is a linear chain of amino acids that folds into a unique functional structure, called its native state. In this state, proteins show repeated substructures lik...

Length-dependent prediction of protein intrinsic disorder
Background: Due to the functional importance of intrinsically disordered proteins or protein regions, prediction of intrinsic protein disorder from amino acid sequence has become ...

HMM-ModE - Improved classification using profile hidden Markov models by optimising the discrimination threshold and modifying e
Background: Profile Hidden Markov Models (HMM) are statistical representations of protein families derived from patterns of sequence conservation in multiple alignments and have b...
