    Citation: BMC Bioinformatics 2017 18(Suppl 2):65
  4. Visualizing the complex probability landscape of stochastic gene regulatory networks can further biologists’ understanding of phenotypic behavior associated with specific genes.

    Authors: Chihua Ma, Timothy Luciani, Anna Terebus, Jie Liang and G. Elisabeta Marai
    Citation: BMC Bioinformatics 2017 18(Suppl 2):24
  5. Protein structures and their interaction with ligands have been in the focus of biochemistry and structural biology research for decades. The transportation of ligand into the protein active site is often comp...
