Research Experiences |
¡¡
|
- Designed Conjuate-Triad descriptor on sequences of proteins. Preidicted protein-protein interactional network solely by sequence information using novel bi-comparison kernel based SVM. Programmed on the whole suite using C++ language.
- Designed sequence-based virtual screening method. Constructed public web-server in identifying partners.
- Developing de novo method in structure-based drug design, programming the whole suite of software using C++ language, including site detection, fragments extraction from CMC database, fragments combination in the binding site of target, etc
- Target dynamic simulations on mechnism for activator of? glucokinase. Evaluated essential move modes by Nomal mode analysis, free energy calculation of binding by MMPBSA-Nmode method and mutation effect by alanine scan
