β¦ Synopsis
Two recent advances have had the greatest impact on protein function analysis so far: the complete sequences of genomes and mRNA expression level profiles. The former has spurred the development of novel techniques to study protein function: phylogenetic profiles and gene clusters. The latter has introduced a method, not based on sequence homology, that enables one to group together functionally related genes.

## Abstract This review presents the advances in protein structure prediction from the computational methods perspective. The approaches are classified into four major categories: comparative modeling, fold recognition, first principles methods that employ database information, and first principles
## Abstract One of the main challenges in proteinβprotein docking is a meaningful evaluation of the many putative solutions. Here we present a program (PROCOS) that calculates a probabilityβlike measure to be native for a given complex. In contrast to scores often used for analyzing complex structu
