Book review of Structural Bioinformatics: An Algorithmic Approach by Forbes J. Burkowski
نویسنده
چکیده
The field of structural bioinformatics has been extensively explored in the recent years. A glance into the on-line book store Amazon.com, Inc. shows several hundred titles related to this topic. Ordering them according to the relevance gives the Burkowski's book the 2nd position. To make a profound analysis of the book and to compare it to the others published so far suggests that the reviewer should have been read many of them. Unfortunately, this is not the case. Therefore, I can give an opinion based on my own experience as a person working in a related field and from reading some freely available selected parts of other related books.

متن کاملUsing kernelized partial canonical correlation analysis to study directly coupled side chains and allostery in small G proteins
MOTIVATION Inferring structural dependencies among a protein's side chains helps us understand their coupled motions. It is known that coupled fluctuations can reveal pathways of communication used for information propagation in a molecule. Side-chain conformations are commonly represented by multivariate angular variables, but existing partial correlation methods that can be applied to this in...
