PEPSI

Participants : David Ritchie [contact person] , Marie-Dominique Devignes.

The PEPSI (“Polynomial Expansions of Protein Structures and Interactions”) project is a collaboration with Sergei Grudinin at Inria Grenoble – Rône Alpes (project Nano-D) and Valentin Gordeliy at the Institut de Biologie Structurale (IBS) in Grenoble. This project funded by the ANR “Modèles Numériques” program involves developing computational protein modeling and docking techniques and using them to help solve the structures of large molecular systems experimentally.
