The breakthrough in protein structure prediction [PDF]
Proteins are the essential agents of all living systems. Even though they are synthesized as linear chains of amino acids, they must assume specific three-dimensional structures in order to manifest their biological activity. These structures are fully specified in their amino acid sequences — and therefore in the nucleotide sequences of their genes ...

Protein structure prediction [PDF]
Predicting 3D structure of protein from its amino acid sequence is one of the most important unsolved problems in biophysics and computational biology. This paper attempts to give a comprehensive introduction of the most recent effort and progress on protein structure prediction.

Water in protein structure prediction [PDF]
Proteins have evolved to use water to help guide folding. A physically motivated, nonpairwise-additive model of water-mediated interactions added to a protein structure prediction Hamiltonian yields marked improvement in the quality of structure prediction for larger proteins.

CirPred, the first structure modeling and linker design system for circularly permuted proteins
Background This work aims to help develop new protein engineering techniques based on a structural rearrangement phenomenon called circular permutation (CP), equivalent to connecting the native termini of a protein followed by creating new termini at ...

(PS)2-v2: template-based protein structure prediction server
Background Template selection and target-template alignment are critical steps for template-based modeling (TBM) methods. To identify the template for the twilight zone of 15~25% sequence similarity between targets and templates is still difficulty for ...

Protein structure prediction in genomics [PDF]
As the number of completely sequenced genomes rapidly increases, including now the complete Human Genome sequence, the post-genomic problems of genome-scale protein structure determination and the issue of gene function identification become ever more pressing.

Sisyphus and prediction of protein structure [PDF]
The problem of predicting protein structure from the sequence remains fundamentally unsolved despite more than three decades of intensive research effort. However, new and promising methods in three-dimensional (3D), 2D and 1D prediction have reopened the field.
