Prediction of Binding Motifs in Hepatitis C Virus NS5A and Human Proteins
From the extensive analysis, we identified three highly conserved sequence segments in HCV NS5A proteins and one binding motif in human proteins. The binding motif of human proteins often forms a full helix or an extended strand-loop structure, and is in good agreement with the experimental findings of previous studies.

- Protein & Peptide Letters publishes short papers in all important aspects of protein and peptide research, including structural studies, recombinant expression, function, synthesis, enzymology, immunology, molecular modeling, drug design etc. Manuscripts must have a significant element of novelty, timeliness and urgency that merit rapid publication. Reports of crystallisation, and preliminary structure determinations of biologically important proteins are acceptable. Purely theoretical papers are also acceptable provided they provide new insight into the principles of protein/peptide structure and function.
