Orientation-dependent backbone-only residue pair scoring functions for fixed backbone protein design
Background: Empirical scoring functions have proven useful in protein structure modeling. Most such scoring functions depend on protein side chain conformations. However, backbone...

Identifying allosteric fluctuation transitions between different protein conformational states as applied to Cyclin Dependent Ki
Background: The mechanisms underlying protein function and associated conformational change are dominated by a series of local entropy fluctuations affecting the global structure ...

Sequence based residue depth prediction using evolutionary information and predicted secondary structure
Background: Residue depth allows determining how deeply a given residue is buried, in contrast to the solvent accessibility that differentiates between buried and solvent-exposed ...

Supervised multivariate analysis of sequence groups to identify specificity determining residues
Background: Proteins that evolve from a common ancestor can change functionality over time, and it is important to be able identify residues that cause this change. In this paper ...

ProfNet, a method to derive profile-profile alignment scoring functions that improves the alignments of distantly related protei
Background: Profile-profile methods have been used for some years now to detect and align homologous proteins. The best such methods use information from the background distributi...
