Paper: A Ligand’s-Eye View of Protein Similarity

30 Jan 2013

Gerard and I have just had a News & Views published in Nature Methods - link to the pdf is here. This is a commentary on a paper by Lin et al. which uses metrics derived from pharmacological similarity to cluster proteins - there are some interesting differences between the same proteins clustered by sequence similarity, anyway, here's the N&V and below is the discussed paper (pdf link here)
