A benchmark of 84 protein-protein interactions with known complexed structures has been developed for testing docking methods<ref name=Minteris>Mintseris J, Wiehe K, Pierce B, Anderson R, Chen R, Janin J, Weng Z (2005). Protein-Protein Docking Benchmark 2.0: an Update. ''Proteins, 60(2):214-6''.</ref>. The set is chosen to cover a wide range of interaction types, and to avoid repeated features, such as the profile of interactors' structural families according to the [http://scop.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/scop/ SCOP] database. Benchmark elements are classified into three levels of difficulty (the most difficult containing the largest change in backbone conformation). The protein-protein docking benchmark contains examples of enzyme-inhibitor, antigen-antibody and homomultimeric complexes.

Revision as of 21:12, 27 September 2006

The Dr. Carlos J. Camacho Laboratory is where I did scientific research from October 2004 - July 2005 and from March 2006 - present (in absentia).

Research topics

Results

The research I have done in the laboratory has, so far, yielded a paper published[1] and four Web Servers:

Programmer, Server architect, and administrator; July 2005–present.
Programmer, Server architect, and administrator; January 2005–present (note: This server uses code optimised and run in parallel on 256 processors).
Programmer, Server architect, and administrator; November 2004–present.
Server architect and administrator; September 2004–present.

CAPRI

I was a participant of "Round 6" (17-Jan-2005) and "Round 7" (29-May-2005) of CAPRI. Our group presented the "SmoothDock Server".

Benchmarks
