The power of operon rearrangements for predicting functional associations.

Computational and structural biotechnology journal

Moreno-Hagelsieb G.
PMID: 26199682
Comput Struct Biotechnol J. 2015 Jul 02;13:402-6. doi: 10.1016/j.csbj.2015.06.002. eCollection 2015.

In this mini-review I aim to make the case that operons might be the most powerful source for predicted associations among gene products. Such associations can help identify potential processes where the products of unannotated genes might play a...

Measuring statistical evidence using relative belief.

Amyloid precursor protein (APP) is expressed in a large variety of neural and non-neural cells. The balance between non-pathogenic and pathologic forms of APP processing, mediated by α-secretase and β-secretase respectively, remains a crucial step to understand β-amyloid, Aβ42...

Biobetters From an Integrated Computational/Experimental Approach.

Computational and structural biotechnology journal

Kuyucak S, Kayser V.
PMID: 28179976
Comput Struct Biotechnol J. 2017 Jan 16;15:138-145. doi: 10.1016/j.csbj.2017.01.003. eCollection 2017.

Biobetters are new drugs designed from existing peptide or protein-based therapeutics by improving their properties such as affinity and selectivity for the target epitope, and stability against degradation. Computational methods can play a key role in such design problems-by...

Mini-review: .
