Abstract
Some information about protein structure can be obtained by using Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) techniques, but they provide only a sparse set of distances between atoms in a protein. The Molecular Distance Geometry Problem (MDGP) consists in determining the three-dimensional structure of a molecule using a set of known distances between some atoms. Recently, a Branch and Prune (BP) algorithm was proposed to calculate the backbone of a protein, based on a discrete formulation for the MDGP. We present an extension of the BP algorithm that can calculate not only the protein backbone, but the whole three-dimensional structure of proteins.
