Diverse effects of distance cutoff and residue interval on the performance of distance-dependent atom-pair potential in protein structure prediction

Abstract Background As one of the most successful knowledge-based energy functions, the distance-dependent atom-pair potential is widely used in all aspects of protein structure prediction, including conformational search, model refinement, and model assessment. During the last two decades, great ef...
