Improved protein structure reconstruction using secondary structures, contacts at higher distance thresholds, and non-contacts

Abstract Background Residue-residue contacts are key features for accurate de novo protein structure prediction. For the optimal utilization of these predicted contacts in folding proteins accurately, it is important to study the challenges of reconstructing protein structures using true contacts. B...
