De-orphaning the structural proteome through reciprocal comparison of evolutionarily important structural features.
Function prediction frequently relies on comparing genes or gene products to search for relevant similarities. Because the number of protein structures with unknown function is mushrooming, however, we asked here whether such comparisons could be improved by focusing narrowly on the key functional f...
