Protein structure prediction in biology and medicine
Protein structure prediction from sequence has made rapid advances in the last few years, gaining increased attention after the success of the CASP meetings. Specifically, threading predictions were shown to work for many cases previously thought to be outside of the scope of prediction methods. The papers in this session address a wide scope of topics, ranging from techniques for validation of prediction methods and further improvements of threading algorithms, to specific applications of protein structure predictions in biology.
