Abstract

A fuzzy cluster method is presented to recognize protein domains. This algorithm can identify domains globally. A protein structure set was used to test the algorithm. Among 219 proteins, 66.7% yielded results that agreed with the reference definitions, 30.6% showed minor differences, and only 2.7% (six proteins) showed major differences with the reference. The new method is more than 20 times fast than previous algorithms.
