Abstract. We describe a new method for the exploration of evolutionary relations between protein structures. The approach is based on the ESSM algorithm for detecting structural mu...
Background: Activated Protein C (ProC) is an anticoagulant plasma serine protease which also plays an important role in controlling inflammation and cell proliferation. Several mu...
