Protein homology detection has played a central role in the understanding of evolution of protein structures, functions and interactions. Many of the developments in protein bioinformatics can be traced back to an initial ...

The insertion of ω- amino acid residues as guests into host α-peptide sequences permits expansion of the range of polypeptide secondary structures. The term ω- amino acid is used to refer to the entire family of residues ...

Proteins associated with metabolic pathways have received considerable attention in an effort to understand the molecular details of the complex reactions catalyzed in vivo. Enzymes belonging to these pathways have also ...
