----------------------------------------Paper Title: “Accelerated protein structure comparison using TM-score-GPU” Summary A paper was published in the journal Bioinformatics, which describes the use of Graphics Processing Units (GPU's) to accelerate computations comparing protein structures. http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/about_us/viewNewsArticle.do?articleId=209 ---------------------------------------- [Edit 1 times, last edit by rilian at Sep 27, 2012 6:45:17 PM] |

Will wcg take any part in the gpu TM scoring system?

Hello flodisar,
As far as I know, NRW will be working to analyse our results for a long time. They were developing GPU programs to aid them in this analysis. I think that we will not be running any more work units for them, but that we will be hearing more about their progress over the years. Lawrence |

Just to let people know.
The way that science works is that publications are months if not years behind the current work. For example, the methodology described in the paper has already been incorporated into a new method for choosing the best protein structure using TM-score as a similarity measure. This has already been applied to the rice protein structures and we have already used the best structures to predict the function of the rice genes. But to write the results up as papers, we have to do the control calculations and benchmarking. Then after writing the manuscripts, it goes to internal reviews, external reviews, revisions, proofs etc before it gets published. However, we will be putting up the results on our website soon - right after we do the benchmarks. Hong |

Dear Hong,
----------------------------------------I hope you will reach your goals not only in terms of writing paper, but more essentially in terms of improving (not only) rice crops production. I wish you all the best in your research and I can guess with probability approaching certainty that you can rely on us, WCG volunteers, if you will need a help in the future. Cheers.
