Background: The prediction of ancestral protein sequences from multiple sequence alignments is useful for many bioinformatics analyses. Predicting ancestral sequences is not a sim...
Background: Many research results show that the biological systems are composed of functional modules. Members in the same module usually have common functions. This is useful inf...
Background: Empirical scoring functions have proven useful in protein structure modeling. Most such scoring functions depend on protein side chain conformations. However, backbone...
Background: Understanding how proteins fold is essential to our quest in discovering how life works at the molecular level. Current computation power enables researchers to produc...
