Protein-Protein Docking Using Starting Points Based On Structural Homology

Protein-protein interactions build large networks which are essential in understanding complex diseases. Due to limitations of experimental methodology there are problems with large amounts of false negative and positive interactions; and a large gap in the amount of known interactions and structura...
