There are currently a large number of ‘‘orphan’’ G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) whose endogenous ligands (peptide hormones) are unknown. Identification of these pepti...
Peptide compositions constructed out of whole sets of protein sequences can be used as species signatures for phylogenetic analysis. To account for point mutations, an amino acid ...
DNA-protein alignment algorithms can be used to discover coding sequences in a genomic sequence, if the corresponding protein derivatives are known. They can also be used to ident...

Soss proved that it is NP-hard to find the maximum flat span of a fixed-angle polygonal chain: the largest distance achievable between the endpoints in a planar embedding. These f...
Abstract: This article presents a novel concept, the minimal molecular surface (MMS), for the theoretical modeling of biomolecules. The MMS can be viewed as a result of the surface...
