Beyond BLASTing: How 3D structural prediction can support or refute BLAST results
(2015-09)
Biologists know that not all BLAST results are homologs and that trees lose information at deep times. We have therefore developed a pipeline to bring increased confidence to the BLAST result. We use structural prediction ...
