(2010). Alpha Helix Prediction Based on Evolutionary Computation. En PRIB 2010: 5th IAPR International Conference on Pattern Recognition in Bioinformatics (358-367), Nijmegen, The Netherlands: Springer.978-3-642-16000-40302-9743https://hdl.handle.net/11441/133475Multiple approaches have been developed in order to predict the protein secondary structure. In this paper, we propose an approach to such a problem based on evolutionary computation. The proposed ap proach considers various amino acids properties in order to predict the secondary structure of a protein. In particular, we will consider the hy drophobicity, the polarity and the charge of amino acids. In this study, we focus on predicting a particular kind of secondary structure: α-helices. The results of our proposal will be a set of rules that will identify the beginning or the end of such a structure.application/pdf10engAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internacionalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Protein secondary structure predictionα-helixEvolutionary Computationinfo:eu-repo/semantics/conferenceObjectinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesshttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-16001-1_31
