A Comprehensive Review of In silico Analysis for Protein S-sulfenylation Sites.

abstract：:Successful approaches of de novo protein design suggest a great potential to create novel structural folds and to understand natural rules of protein folding. For these purposes, smaller and simpler de novo proteins have been developed. Here, we constructed smaller proteins by removing the terminal sequences from stab...
