Abstract

This paper proposes an iterative clustering procedure for finding protein motifs which do not necessarily correspond to secondary structures, or to features along the protein backbone. We show the applicability of our method to two important applications namely, protein structure matching, and automatically identifying active sites and other biologically significant sub-structures in proteins.
