DOI: 10.1002/jcc.70238
Abstract: Hexapeptides are increasingly applied as model systems for studying the amyloidogenic properties of oligo‐ and polypeptides. It is possible to construct 64 million different hexapeptides from the twenty proteinogenic amino acid residues. Today's experimental amyloid… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/joc.70181
Abstract: Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) has been widely used in precipitation downscaling. However, it is unclear whether the predictor region size significantly influences the precipitation downscaling results using CNN for predictor‐predictand mapping. In this paper, we… read more here.
