METHOD FOR PREDICTING G-PROTEIN COUPLED RECEPTOR-LIGAND INTERACTIONS

摘要

The invention is a teachable system and method for predicting the interactions of proteins with other proteins, nucleic acids and small molecules. A database containing protein sequences and information regarding protein interactions is used to "teach" the machine. Proteins with unknown interactions are compared by the machine to proteins in the database. Homologs of proteins known to interact in the database are predicted to interact.
