Slipknot or Crystallographic Error: A Computational Analysis of the <i>Plasmodium falciparum</i> DHFR Structural Folds

Slipknot or Crystallographic Error: A Computational Analysis of the <i>Plasmodium falciparum</i> DHFR Structural Folds

The presence of protein structures with atypical folds in the Protein Data Bank (PDB) is rare and may result from naturally occurring knots or crystallographic errors. Proper characterisation of such folds is imperative to understanding the basis of naturally existing knots and correcting crystallog...
