摘要: A computational method for attempting to predict protein complexes from the coordinates of individual proteins has been developed. It is based on matching complementary patterns knobs and holes. The computer algorithm correctly uniquely predicts association alpha beta subunits form αβ dimer corresponding α1β1 interface in hemoglobin tetramer. fails dock trypsin inhibitor onto trypsin. Nevertheless, this lone success still a significant advance over previous protein-docking algorithms. also important because it introduces several ways measure shape surface regions.
