Estimates of statistical significance for comparison of individual positions in multiple sequence alignments
Background: Profile-based analysis of multiple sequence alignments (MSA) allows for accurate comparison of protein families. Here, we address the problems of detecting statistical...

A robust and efficient algorithm for the shape description of protein structures and its application in predicting ligand bindin
Background: An accurate description of protein shape derived from protein structure is necessary to establish an understanding of protein-ligand interactions, which in turn will l...

PALSSE: A program to delineate linear secondary structural elements from protein structures
Background: The majority of residues in protein structures are involved in the formation of helices and -strands. These distinctive secondary structure patterns can be used to rep...

Multipolar representation of protein structure
Background: That the structure determines the function of proteins is a central paradigm in biology. However, protein functions are more directly related to cooperative effects at...
