When we want to align proteins, we have to think of a discrete 3D shape
representation of the molecules. Possible ``critical features'' may be:
- Backbone C
atomic centers
(see figure [13.2])
- C
-C
vectors
- Secondary Structure Elements (
-helices,
-sheets)
- Molecular Surface Representation (see section [13.3])
