We are interested in developing and applying computational tools for biological problems. Our Structural Bioinformatics work is oriented to prediction and analysis of protein structure and its relationship to protein function. Areas of interest include:
Protein Sequence to Protein Structure comparative (homology) modeling sequence-to-structure alignments structure evaluation
Protein Structure to Protein Function identification and characterization of ligand binding sites modeling of protein-ligand complex structures description of ligand binding selectivity identification of biologically active forms prediction of the functional effect of mutations Biological Systems of interest protein domains involved in chromatin remodeling (bromodomain, chromodomain, etc.) genetic metabolic diseases
