Detection of cave pockets in large molecules: Spaces into which internal probes can enter, but external probes from outside cannot
Geometric features of macromolecular shapes are important for binding with other molecules. Kawabata, T. and Go, N. (2007) defined a pocket as a space into which a small probe can enter, but a large probe cannot. In 2010, mathematical morphology (MM) was introduced to provide a more rigorous definit...
