Computing the protein binding sites [PDF]
Identifying the location of binding sites on proteins is of fundamental importance for a wide range of applications including molecular docking, de novo drug design, structure identification and comparison of functional sites. Structural genomic projects are beginning to produce protein structures with unknown functions.

Galactoside-Binding Site in LacY [PDF]
Although an X-ray crystal structure of lactose permease (LacY) has been presented with bound galactopyranoside, neither the sugar nor the residues ligating the sugar can be identified with precision at ~3.5 Å. Therefore, additional evidence is important for identifying side chains likely to be involved in binding.

P53 Binding Sites in Transposons [PDF]
Repeated regions of the genome harbor more functional information than commonly assumed. Two decades ago, a highly influential paper describing the consensus binding site for the key transcription factor p53 was published in Nature Genetics by el-Deiry et al. (1992). Recently, it has been observed that many p53 binding sites are species-specific (Jegga

Site-Directed Mutagenesis and Site-Specific Binding Analysis of Calmodulin (CaM) [PDF]
Calcium signaling is a major regulatory system in cells and a crucial part of cell biology. An important element in the decoding of intracellular calcium concentration into downstream processes is the ubiquitous and highly conserved calcium binding ...

Evolutionary Covariant Positions within Calmodulin EF-hand Sequences Promote Ligand Binding [PDF]
Intracellular calcium signaling is an essential regulatory mechanism through calcium-mediated signal transduction pathways involved in many cell processes, such as exocytosis, motility, apoptosis, excitability, transcription, and muscle contraction.
