Analysis of Protein-Ligand Interactions Using Localized Stereochemical Features
Computational analyses of protein structure-function relationships have traditionally been based on sequence homology, fold family analysis and 3D motifs/templates. Previous struct...

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...

Automatic generation of 3D motifs for classification of protein binding sites
Background: Since many of the new protein structures delivered by high-throughput processes do not have any known function, there is a need for structure-based prediction of prote...

Discovering structural motifs using a structural alphabet: Application to magnesium-binding sites
Background: For many metalloproteins, sequence motifs characteristic of metal-binding sites have not been found or are so short that they would not be expected to be metal-specifi...

Variation in structural location and amino acid conservation of functional sites in protein domain families
Background: The functional sites of a protein present important information for determining its cellular function and are fundamental in drug design. Accordingly, accurate methods...
