Macromolecular Modeling Blog ™

NAR just published the new special “Database” issue for 2010. We collected 23 papers that might be of interest to structural biologists, modelers and other protein people.

In this Bi-weekly digest, a large scale structural analysis of the human tyrosine phosphatome, a Fas-death domain complex structure, and at least two works concerning calmodulin…

In this Bi-Weekly Digest, several folding theory papers and a first look at a large ribonucleoprotein particle which may play a role in pathogen clearance.

In a first digest of 2009: two new Rosetta protocols – A new RosettaLigand – docking with full ligand and receptor flexibility, and an improved design protocol to recover native protein-protein interface sequences. Also a new structure of the NaK channel and analysis of its selectivity.

In this Bi-weekly digest, a structural insight into the inhibition mechanism of calpastatins, analysis of core hydrophobic amino acids interactions and more relevant titles form current issues of molecular and computational biology literature. If you want to initiate in a public discussion on one of these, let us know in the comments.
