A novel mathematical model of protein interactions (2): The mathematics behind the model
Naoto Morikawa
This article is a sequel to ``A novel mathematical model of protein interactions from the perspective of electron delocalization (2025)'', where protein molecules are modelded as l…
A Novel Mathematical Model of Protein Interactions from the Perspective of Electron Delocalization
Naoto Morikawa
Proteins are the workhorse molecules of the cell and perform their biological functions by binding to other molecules through physical contact. Protein function is then regulated t…
A novel method for identification of local conformational changes in proteins
Naoto Morikawa
Motivation: Proteins are known to undergo conformational changes in the course of their functions. The changes in conformation are often attributable to a small fraction of residue…
Discrete differential geometry of tetrahedrons and encoding of local protein structure
Naoto Morikawa
Local protein structure analysis is informative to protein structure analysis and has been used successfully in protein structure prediction and others. Proteins have recurring str…
Number sequence representation of protein structures based on the second derivative of a folded tetrahedron sequence
Naoto Morikawa
This paper proposes a new mathematical approach to characterize native protein structures based on the discrete differential geometry of tetrahedron tiles. In the approach, local s…
Discrete differential geometry of triangle tiles and algebra of closed trajectories
Naoto Morikawa
This paper proposes a new mathematical framework that can be applied to biological problems such as analysis of the structures of proteins and protein complexes. In particular, it…
