Peptides' retention time prediction is gaining increasing popularity in liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS)-based proteomics. This is a promising approach for improving successful proteome mapping, useful both in identification ...
Quality assessment of a protein model is to predict the absolute or relative quality of a protein model using computational methods before the native structure is available. Single-model methods only need one model as input and can predict the absolu...

One of the major challenges for protein docking methods is to accurately discriminate native-like structures from false positives. Docking methods are often inaccurate and the results have to be refined and re-ranked to obtain native-like complexes a...
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the major causes of female subfertility worldwide and ≈ 7-10% of women in reproductive age are affected by it. The affected individuals exhibit varying types and levels of comorbid conditions, along with the...
