Proteins, proteins everywhere [PDF]
Science, 2021 The first protein structures were determined by x-ray crystallography in 1957 by John C. Kendrew and Max F. Perutz. As a bioinorganic chemist, I was delighted that the structures were myoglobin and hemoglobin, both heme proteins with big, beautiful iron atoms.

Contextualized Protein-Protein Interactions [PDF]
Patterns, 2021 Protein-protein interaction (PPI) databases are an important bioinformatics resource, yet existing literature-curated databases usually represent cell-type-agnostic interactions, which is at variance with our understanding that protein dynamics are context specific and highly dependent on their environment.

Advances in Nutrition, 2011 Proteins are polymers of amino acids linked via α-peptide bonds. They can be represented as primary, secondary, tertiary, and even quaternary structures, but from a nutritional viewpoint only the primary (amino acid) sequence is of interest. Similarly, although there are many compounds in the body that can be chemically defined as amino acids, we are ...

Directed evolution converts subtilisin E into a functional equivalent of thermitase [PDF]
, 1999 We used directed evolution to convert Bacillus subtilis subtilisin E into an enzyme functionally equivalent to its thermophilic homolog thermitase from Thermoactinomyces vulgaris.

Application of fourier transform and proteochemometrics principles to protein engineering
BMC Bioinformatics, 2018 Background Connecting the dots between the protein sequence and its function is of fundamental interest for protein engineers. In-silico methods are useful in this quest especially when structural information is not available.

Minimum energy configurations of the 2-dimensional HP-model of proteins by self-organizing networks [PDF]
, 2002 We use self-organizing maps (SOM) as an efficient tool to find the minimum energy configurations of the 2-dimensional HP-models of proteins. The usage of the SOM for the protein folding problem is similar to that for the Traveling Salesman Problem.

Bacteriophage Protein–Protein Interactions [PDF]
, 2012 Bacteriophages T7, λ, P22, and P2/P4 (from Escherichia coli), as well as ϕ29 (from Bacillus subtilis), are among the best-studied bacterial viruses. This chapter summarizes published protein interaction data of intraviral protein interactions, as well as known phage-host protein interactions of these phages retrieved from the literature. We also review

Multiple structural alignment for distantly related all b structures using TOPS pattern discovery and simulated annealing [PDF]
, 2003 Topsalign is a method that will structurally align diverse protein structures, for example, structural alignment of protein superfolds. All proteins within a superfold share the same fold but often have very low sequence identity and different biological
