Efficient detection of three-dimensional structural motifs in biological macromolecules by computer vision techniques

Macromolecules carrying biological information often consist of independent modules containing recurring structural motifs. Detection of a specific structural motif within a protein (or DNA) aids in elucidating the role played by the protein (DNA element) and the mechanism of its operation. The numb...
