Content

This lecture continues the 'Protein Prediction I' lecture. The attendance of this lecture however is not a mandatory requirement for 'Protein Prediction II'. Topics will include (but not be limited to):

  • Predicting protein function using sequence: sequence alignments, multiple sequence alignments, motifs, domain assignment, annotation transfer by homology, ab initio predictions.
  • Predicting protein function using structure: structural alignments, structural motifs, annotation transfer via structure similarity.
  • From structure prediction to function prediction: comparative modeling; prediction of: secondary structure, hydrophilicity profiles, solvent accessibility, transmembrane segments, disordered regions, contact maps, functional residues; template free modeling.
  • Machine learning.

Exercise

The advances of high-throughput sequencing technologies have resulted in an ever growing amount of biological data. Visualization is in an intuitive way to analyze these data. In the exercises we will be working on the development of novel JavaScript-based components to visualizate biological data on the web.

For more details please refer to our wiki. The organisation, requirements and grading of the exercise are also explained there.The log in credentials will be announced in the exercise on Oct 16th.
