Many aspects of the study of protein folding and dynamics have been affected by the recent advances in machine learning. Methods for the prediction of protein structures from their sequences are now heavily based on machine learning tools. The way si...
BACKGROUND: Tandem mass spectrometry allows biologists to identify and quantify protein samples in the form of digested peptide sequences. When performing peptide identification, spectral library search is more sensitive than traditional database sea...
BACKGROUND: Accurate identification of potential interactions between drugs and protein targets is a critical step to accelerate drug discovery. Despite many relative experimental researches have been done in the past decades, detecting drug-target i...
Biomolecular simulations are intrinsically high dimensional and generate noisy data sets of ever-increasing size. Extracting important features from the data is crucial for understanding the biophysical properties of molecular processes, but remains ...

Dec 18, 2019
Structure based drug designing is an important endeavor in the field of structural bioinformatics. Previously the entire process was dependent on the wet-lab experiments to build libraries of ligand molecules. And the molecules used to be tested to d...
BACKGROUND: Predicting protein function and structure from sequence is one important challenge for computational biology. For 26 years, most state-of-the-art approaches combined machine learning and evolutionary information. However, for some applica...
UniprotR is a software package designed to easily retrieve, cluster and visualize protein data from UniProt knowledgebase (UniProtKB) using R language. The package is implemented mainly to process, parse and illustrate proteomics data in a handy and ...
Predicting interactions between proteins and other biomolecules solely based on structure remains a challenge in biology. A high-level representation of protein structure, the molecular surface, displays patterns of chemical and geometric features th...
Pseudoenzymes are proteins that are evolutionary related to enzymes but lack relevant catalytic activity. They are usually evolved from enzymatic ancestors that have lost their catalytic activities. The loss of catalytic function is one extreme among...
