Determining protein similarity by comparing hydrophobic core structure

Formal assessment of structural similarity is − next to protein structure prediction − arguably the most important unsolved problem in proteomics. In this paper we propose a similarity criterion based on commonalities between the proteins’ hydrophobic cores. The hydrophobic core emerges as a result...
