  • Mansour, Nashat; Kehyayan, Christine; Khachfe, Hassan (2016-01-27)
    In this paper, we present a Scatter Search (SS) algorithm for predicting 3D structures of proteins based on torsion angles representation. Given the protein's sequence of Amino Acids (AAs), our algorithm produces a 3D ...
  • Mansour, Nashat; Stamboulian, Mouses (Springer, 2018-05-17)
    Homology modeling is an effective technique in protein structure prediction (PSP). However this technique suffers from poor initial target-template alignments. To improve homology based PSP, we propose a scatter search ...
  • Kehyayan, Christine Houry (Lebanese American University, 2011-10-25)
    Proteins are organic compounds made up of chains of amino acids. These amino acids are formed from atoms and the chain fold into complex 3-dimensional structures based on their chemical and physical properties. A protein ...
  • Stamboulian, Mouses Hrag (Lebanese American University, 2015-09-30)
    Determining a protein’s structure is a challenging goal in structural bioinformatics, offering important insight towards understanding the function of a protein. Homology modeling is an effective technique in protein ...
