Atom depth as a descriptor of the protein interior.

TL;DR: It is shown that dpx values can be used to partition atoms in discrete layers according to their depth and to identify atoms that, although buried, are potential targets for posttranslational modifications like phosphorylation.
Journal ArticleDOI

How root-mean-square distance (r.m.s.d.) values depend on the resolution of protein structures that are compared

TL;DR: In this paper, the root-mean-square distance (r.m.s.) between equivalent atoms is computed after optimal superposition of the two structures that are compared. But the dependence of the r.ms.s. values on the protein-pair dimensions is unknown.
Journal ArticleDOI

DPX: for the analysis of the protein core

TL;DR: A simple and fast algorithm that measures the depth of each atom in a protein (dpx), defined as its distance from the closest solvent accessible atom, is described.
