'Protein Peeling': an approach for splitting a 3D protein structure into compact fragments

JC Gelly, AG De Brevern, S Hazout - Bioinformatics, 2006 - academic.oup.com
Motivation: The object of this study is to propose a new method to identify small compact
units that compose protein three-dimensional structures. These fragments, called 'protein …

A folding inhibitor of the HIV‐1 protease

RA Broglia, D Provasi, F Vasile… - Proteins: Structure …, 2006 - Wiley Online Library
Because the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 protease (HIV-1-PR) is an essential
enzyme in the viral life cycle, its inhibition can control AIDS. The folding of singledomain …

Sequence of events in folding mechanism: beyond the Gō model

L Sutto, G Tiana, RA Broglia - Protein science, 2006 - Wiley Online Library
Simplified Gō models, where only native contacts interact favorably, have proven useful to
characterize some aspects of the folding of small proteins. The success of these models is …

The generic nature of protein folding and misfolding

CM Dobson - … , Aggregation, and Conformational Diseases: Part A …, 2006 - Springer
The ability of proteins to fold to their functional states is an astonishing example of the power
of biological evolution at the molecular level. Despite the large number of different native …
