This may eventually lead to a method to find functional relationships between proteins with even lower overall sequence similarity.
The interactions between proteins are central to virtually every process in a living cell.
Such communication between proteins allows for the efficient transfer substrates from one active site to the next.
Genera within this family have 40% homology between corresponding proteins.
This water network has a damping effect on the attractive forces between proteins.
Interactions between proteins are important for the majority of biological functions.
A motivation for this classification is to determine the evolutionary relationship between proteins.
Interactions between intermediate filaments and other proteins are also being pursued.
The center also works on the simulation of the interactions between proteins and their interaction with drugs.
However, sequence similarities can be extremely low between proteins that share the same structure.
