PSICOV: precise structural contact prediction using sparse inverse covariance estimation on large multiple sequence alignments.

Abstract excerpt

MOTIVATION: The accurate prediction of residue-residue contacts, critical for maintaining the native fold of a protein, remains an open problem in the field of structural bioinformatics. Interest in this long-standing problem has increased recently with algorithmic improvements and the rapid growth in the sizes of sequence families. Progress could have major impacts in both structure and function prediction to...
