1. Protein structure prediction : Zinc-binding sites, one-dimensional structure and remote homology
Abstract : Predicting the three-dimensional (3D) structure of proteins is a central problem in biology. These computationally predicted 3D protein structures have been successfully applied in many fields of biomedicine, e.g. family assignments and drug discovery. READ MORE

2. Ensemble methods for protein structure prediction
Abstract : Proteins play an essential role in virtually all of life's processes. Their function is tightly coupled to the three-dimensional structure they adopt.Solving protein structures experimentally is a complicated, time- and resource-consuming endeavor. READ MORE

3. Protein Structure Prediction : Model Building and Quality Assessment
Abstract : Proteins play a crucial roll in all biological processes. The wide range of protein functions is made possible through the many different conformations that the protein chain can adopt. The structure of a protein is extremely important for its function, but to determine the structure of protein experimentally is both difficult and time consuming. READ MORE

4. From Sequence to Structure : Using predicted residue contacts to facilitate template-free protein structure prediction
Abstract : Despite the fundamental role of experimental protein structure determination, computational methods are of essential importance to bridge the ever growing gap between available protein sequence and structure data. Common structure prediction methods rely on experimental data, which is not available for about half of the known protein families. READ MORE

5. Transmembrane Proteins and Protein Structure Prediction : What we can learn from Computational Methods
Abstract : A protein’s 3D-structure is essential to understand how proteins function and interact and how biochemical processes proceed in organic life. Despite the advancement in experimental methods, it remains expensive and time-consuming to determine protein structure experimentally. READ MORE
