Given a set of alternative models for a specific protein sequence, the model quality assessment (MQA) problem asks for an assignment of scores to each model in the set. A good MQA program assigns these scores such that they correlate well with real quality of the models, ideally scoring best that model which is closest to the true structure. In thi...

A correct alignment is an essential requirement in homology modeling. Yet in order to bridge the structural gap between template and target, which may not only involve loop rearrangements, but also shifts of secondary structure elements and repacking of core residues, high-resolution refinement methods with full atomic details are needed. Here, we ...

Our group tested three quality assessment functions in CASP8: a function which used only distance constraints derived from alignments (SAM-T08-MQAO), a function which added other single-model terms to the distance constraints (SAM-T08-MQAU), and a function which used both single-model and consensus terms (SAM-T08-MQAC). We analyzed the functions bo...

Discretization of protein conformational space and fragment assembly methods simplify the search of native structures. These methods, mostly of Monte Carlo and genetic-type, do not exploit, however, the fact that short fragments describing consecutive parts of proteins are conformation-dependent. Yet, this information should be useful in improving ...
