Cryo-EM map interpretation and protein model-building using iterative map segmentation. [PDF]
A procedure for building protein chains into maps produced by single-particle electron cryo-microscopy (cryo-EM) is described. The procedure is similar to the way an experienced structural biologist might analyze a map, focusing first on secondary ...

Sample Reduction Strategies for Protein Secondary Structure Prediction
Predicting the secondary structure from protein sequence plays a crucial role in estimating the 3D structure, which has applications in drug design and in understanding the function of proteins. As new genes and proteins are discovered, the large size of

PS4: a next-generation dataset for protein single-sequence secondary structure prediction
Protein secondary structure prediction is a subproblem of protein folding. A light-weight algorithm capable of accurately predicting secondary structure from only the protein residue sequence could provide useful input for tertiary structure prediction ...

Bayesian Segmentation of Protein Secondary Structure [PDF]
We present a novel method for predicting the secondary structure of a protein from its amino acid sequence. Most existing methods predict each position in turn based on a local window of residues, sliding this window along the length of the sequence. In contrast, we develop a probabilistic model of protein sequence/structure relationships in terms of ...

A convenient protein library for spectroscopic calibrations
While several Raman, CD or FTIR spectral libraries are available for well-characterized proteins of known structure, proteins themselves are usually very difficult to acquire, preventing a convenient calibration of new instruments and new recording ...

Pervasive, conserved secondary structure in highly charged protein regions.
Understanding how protein sequences confer function remains a defining challenge in molecular biology. Two approaches have yielded enormous insight yet are often pursued separately: structure-based, where sequence-encoded structures mediate function, and
