Efficient protein alignment algorithm for protein search
Efficient protein alignment algorithm for protein search is a scholarly work by Bin Fu, published in 2010 in ''BMC Bioinformatics''. The main subjects of the publication include protein structure prediction, Protein Data Bank, structural bioinformatics, data mining, computer science, data compression, Structural Classification Of Proteins, similarity, sequence alignment, Pairwise comparison, search algorithm, Smith–Waterman algorithm, RNA sequencing, algorithm, cluster analysis, Protein Data Bank, multiple sequence alignment, protein structure, nearest neighbor search, protein structure database, and structural alignment. AbstractBackgroundProteins show a great variety of 3D conformations, which can be used to infer their evolutionary relationship and to classify them into more general groups; therefore protein structure alignment algorithms are very helpful for protein biologists.
