Fast and accurate multivariate Gaussian modeling of protein families: predicting residue contacts and protein-interaction partners.

In the course of evolution, proteins show a remarkable conservation of their three-dimensional structure and their biological function, leading to strong evolutionary constraints on the sequence variability between homologous proteins. Our method aims at extracting such constraints from rapidly accu...
