Assessment of Globularity of Protein Structures via Minimum Volume Ellipsoids and Voxel-Based Atom Representation

Assessment of Globularity of Protein Structures via Minimum Volume Ellipsoids and Voxel-Based Atom Representation

A computer algorithm for assessment of globularity of protein structures is presented. By enclosing the input protein in a minimum volume ellipsoid (MVEE) and calculating a profile measuring how voxelized space within this shape (cubes on a uniform grid) is occupied by atoms, it is possible to estim...
