✦ Synopsis
Following the first experiment for the Critical Assessment of methods for protein Structure Prediction (CASP1), numerical criteria were devised to analyze the performance of prediction methods. We report here the criteria for comparative modeling, and how effective they were in CASP2. These criteria are intended to evolve into a set of numerical measures that provide a comprehensive assessment of the quality of a structure produced by comparative modeling, and provide a means of investigating which modeling methods are most effective, so as to establish where future effort may be most productively applied.

This article presents SOMCD, an improved method for the evaluation of protein secondary structure from circular dichroism spectra, based on Kohonen's self-organizing maps (SOM). Protein circular dichroism (CD) spectra are used to train a SOM, which arranges the spectra on a two-dimensional map. Loca
Homology or comparative modeling is aimed at modeling the three-dimensional structure of a target sequence of unknown structure using the framework of an already known fold. Traditionally, homology modeling has been applied to targets with clear sequence similarity to proteins of known structure. Be
Plants adapt to various stresses by developmental alterations that render them less easily damaged. Expression of the TCH2 gene of Arabidopsis is strongly induced by stimuli such as touch and wind. The gene product, TCH2, belongs to the calmodulin (CaM) family of proteins and contains four highly co
