Lecture and Exercise Protein Prediction II for Bioinformaticians WS18/19

This lecture continues the 'Protein Prediction' lecture. The attendance of this lecture is however not a mandatory requrement for 'Protein Prediction II'.Topics will include (but not be limited to):

• Predicting protein function using sequence: sequence alignments, multiple sequence alignments, motifs, domain assignment, annotation transfer by homology, ab initio predictions.
• Predicting protein function using structure: structural alignments, structural motifs, annotation transfer via structure similarity.
• From structure prediction to function prediction: comparative modeling; prediction of: secondary structure, hydrophilicity profiles, solvent accessibility, transmembrane segments, disordered regions, contact maps, functional residues; template free modeling.
• Machine learning.
