Revisiting the Voronoi description of protein-protein interfaces
2006
Protein Science
We developed a model of macromolecular interfaces based on the Voronoi diagram and the related alpha-complex, and we tested its properties on a set of 96 protein-protein complexes taken from the Protein ...
The Voronoi model provides robust definitions of the curvature and of the connectivity of the interfaces, and leads to estimates of these features that generally agree with other approaches. ...

Shelling the Voronoi interface of protein-protein complexes predicts residue activity and conservation
2008

We show that patterns of 'dry' residues can, to a large extent, be predicted by a fast, parameter-free and purely geometric analysis of protein interfaces. ...
We analyze the correlation between Voronoi shelling order, dryness, and conservation on a set of 54 protein-protein complexes. ...

Geometric filtering of pairwise atomic interactions applied to the design of efficient statistical potentials
2006
Computer Aided Geometric Design
We show that we can filter the list of all interactions in a protein to generate a much smaller subset of pairs that retains most of the structural information contained in proteins. ...
Distance-dependent, pairwise, statistical potentials are based on the concept that the packing observed in known protein structures can be used as a reference for comparing different 3D models for a protein ...
