Abstract
The Critical Assessment of Structure Prediction (CASP) brings together a diverse group of scientists, from deep learning experts to NMR specialists, all aimed at developing accurate prediction algorithms that can effectively characterize the structural aspects of biomolecules relevant to their functions. Engagement within the CASP community has traditionally been limited to the prediction season and the conference, with limited discourse in the 1.5 years between CASP seasons. CASP special interest groups (SIGs) were established in 2023 to encourage continuous dialogue within the community. The online seminar series has drawn global participation from across disciplines and career stages. This has facilitated cross-disciplinary discussions fostering collaborations. The archives of these seminars have become a vital learning tool for newcomers to the field, lowering the barrier to entry.
期刊介绍：
PROTEINS : Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics publishes original reports of significant experimental and analytic research in all areas of protein research: structure, function, computation, genetics, and design. The journal encourages reports that present new experimental or computational approaches for interpreting and understanding data from biophysical chemistry, structural studies of proteins and macromolecular assemblies, alterations of protein structure and function engineered through techniques of molecular biology and genetics, functional analyses under physiologic conditions, as well as the interactions of proteins with receptors, nucleic acids, or other specific ligands or substrates. Research in protein and peptide biochemistry directed toward synthesizing or characterizing molecules that simulate aspects of the activity of proteins, or that act as inhibitors of protein function, is also within the scope of PROTEINS. In addition to full-length reports, short communications (usually not more than 4 printed pages) and prediction reports are welcome. Reviews are typically by invitation; authors are encouraged to submit proposed topics for consideration.
