Orientation-dependent backbone-only residue pair scoring functions for fixed backbone protein design
Background: Empirical scoring functions have proven useful in protein structure modeling. Most such scoring functions depend on protein side chain conformations. However, backbone...

On the use of resampling tests for evaluating statistical significance of binding-site co-occurrence
Background: In eukaryotes, most DNA-binding proteins exert their action as members of large effector complexes. The presence of these complexes are revealed in high-throughput gen...
