The Amib project aims at developing 3 main biological goals:
structural models for RNAs and proteins,
structural and functional annotation strategies for sequences
design engineering for proteins fitting a given fold
and RNAs satisfying given constraints.
Modelling and annotation rely on combinatorial algorithms, enumeration and statistics.
Knowledge extraction methods are also relevant.
Developing rigorous criteria to assess the quality of predictions is at the core of the project.
The project intends to build libraries of artificial sequences to be
used for structural and functional engineering.
Several current academic collaborations, with researchers from:
MPI-Berlin, UPenn, UQAM-Montreal, Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics (Geneva), UCBerkeley.
