Abstract excerpt
We have developed a simple method to assess the effect of mutations on the binding affinity change in the protein-DNA interaction. In this method, we evaluate the contribution of the local geometric effect in protein-DNA recognition by calculating the change in interaction energy caused by mutations, and assess the binding activity by introducing the binding affinity index. We applied this method to the...
