The proposed protein docking tool is able to predict the final complex, which is produced by the interaction between two proteins. More specifically, it accurately predicts the translation and rotation (pose) of one protein (ligand) with respect to another protein (receptor) in order to produce a stable complex. The tool computes the molecular surfaces of the interacting proteins and then compares these surfaces in terms of geometric complementarity. The method outperforms existing state-of-the-art approaches.

The proposed protein classification tool is able to classify a protein based only on the geometric similarity of the protein’s 3D structure. It is based on the concept that proteins that have similar 3D structure (i.e. similar geometric shape) will also have similar functions, i.e. they will belong to the same category. The tool achieves high classification accuracy in a benchmark database of known protein structures.
