Abstract
MOTIVATION: Over 300 000 protein-protein interaction (PPI) pairs have been identified in the human proteome and targeting these is fast becoming the next frontier in drug design. Predicting PPI sites, however, is a challenging task that traditionally requires computationally expensive and time-consuming docking simulations. A major weakness of modern protein docking algorithms is the inability to account for protein flexibility, which ultimately leads to relatively poor results.
