Computational structure prediction protocols
To celebrate the 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry awarded for computational protein design and protein structure prediction, we have compiled a selection of our Protocols and Tutorials showcasing the diverse applications of computational structure prediction methods. The articles cover a wide range of topics including protein structure prediction and refinement, docking, predicting intrinsic disorder in proteins, virtual screening, strategies to analyse off-target effects of programmable nucleases, antibody modeling and epitope mapping.
