Background: Proteins that are similar in sequence or structure may perform different functions in nature. In such cases, function cannot be inferred from sequence or structural si...
Background: Recent progress in cDNA and EST sequencing is yielding a deluge of sequence data. Like database search results and proteome databases, this data gives rise to inferred...

Abstract. The hydrophobic-polar (HP) model for protein structure preabstracts the fact that hydrophobic interactions are a dominant force in the protein folding process. This model...

Abstract. The function of a protein is dependent on whether and how it can interact with various ligands. Therefore, an accurate prediction of protein-ligand interactions is paramo...
