Simulation of water around a model protein helix. 2. The relative contributions of packing, hydrophobicity, and hydrogen bonding

TL;DR: In this paper, the relative importance of pacting, protein-water hydrogen bonding, and water water hydrogen bonding in creating a water structure around a polyalanine a-helix was assessed.

Digging for Dead Genes: An Analysis of the Characteristics of the Pseudogene Population in the C. elegans Genome

TL;DR: An initial estimate of the size, distribution and characteristics of the pseudogene population in the Caenorhabditis elegans genome is derived by performing a survey in ‘molecular archaeology’, indicating a highly dynamic genome.

SVFX: a machine-learning framework to quantify the pathogenicity of structural variants

TL;DR: An agnostic machine-learning-based workflow, called SVFX, is built to assign a “pathogenicity score” to somatic and germline SVs in various diseases and found that predicted pathogenic SVS in cancer cohorts were enriched among known cancer genes and many cancer-related pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI

Predicting protein ligand binding motions with the conformation explorer

TL;DR: This work describes how to generate ligand binding conformations of proteins that move by hinge bending, the largest class of motions, and demonstrates that the method in most cases successfully predicts the holo conformation given only an apo structure.
