Protein structure prediction in genomics.

abstract：MOTIVATION:The functional changes of the genes, RNAs and proteins will eventually be reflected in the metabolic level. Increasing number of researchers have researched mechanism, biomarkers and targeted drugs by metabolites. However, compared with our knowledge about genes, RNAs, and proteins, we still know few about d...

abstract：MOTIVATION:Over the past decade, the field of next-generation sequencing (NGS) has seen dramatic advances in methods and a decrease in costs. Consequently, a large expansion of data has been generated by NGS, most of which have originated from RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) experiments. Because mitochondrial genes are expres...
