Whole-genome sequencing projects are a major source of unknown function proteins. However, as predicting protein function from sequence remains a difficult task, research groups recently started to use 3D protein structures and structural models to bypass it. MED-SuMo compares protein surfaces analyzing the composition and spatial distribution of specific chemical groups (hydrogen bond donor, acceptor, positive, negative, aromatic, hydrophobic, guanidinium, hydroxyl, acyl and glycine). It is abl ...[more]
