Insights into protein function through large-scale computational analysis of sequence and structure.

Functional genomic and proteomic technologies are producing biological data relating to hundreds, or even thousands of proteins per experiment. Rapid and accurate computational analysis of the molecular function of these proteins is therefore crucial in order to interpret these data and prioritize further experiments.
