Background: Experimentally determined protein structures may contain errors and require validation. Conformational criteria based on the Ramachandran plot are mainly used to disti...
Background: A multiple sequence alignment (MSA) generated for a protein can be used to characterise residues by means of a statistical analysis of single columns. In addition to t...
In large peer-to-peer (P2P) overlay networks, nodes usually share resources to support all kinds of applications. In such networks, a subset of the nodes may assume the role of br...
