LFY of Arabidopsis is a member of a unique plant specific transcription factor family. It is involved in giving meristem a determinate floral fate by the activation of floral organ identity genes and preventing inflorescence ...

Synthetic construction of protein molecules has been widely pursued over the last two decades. A primary goal behind de novo protein design has been to build minimal systems by capturing the essential features of protein ...

A major challenge in biology is to understand and predict the effect of mutations on protein structure, stability and function. Chapter 1 provides a general introduction on protein sequence-structure relationships and use ...

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 ...
