Environmental activism in urban China: the role of personal networks

Author(s) : Xie Lei
Description :
This study explores the role of personal networks in the contemporary environmental movement in China. It analyzes how and when (under what kind of contextual conditions) personal networks are (not) used and applied to protect the environment in major Chinese cities. Illustrated by four case st...

Environmental Activism in China

Author(s) : Xie Lei
Description : Major environmental degradation is a serious problem for China as the country's economy continues to grow at a phenomenal pace. In recent years environmental organisations have begun to emerge in China, and in some cases have had remarkable success in affecting policies which would have had signific...

A robust and efficient algorithm for the shape description of protein structures and its application in predicting ligand binding sites

Author(s) : Xie Lei , Bourne Philip E
Description :

Abstract

Background

An accurate description of protein shape derived from protein structure is necessary to establish an understanding of protein-ligand interactions, which in turn will lead to improved methods for protein-ligand docking and binding site analysis. Most current shape...

Functional Coverage of the Human Genome by Existing Structures, Structural Genomics Targets, and Homology Models

Author(s) : Xie, Lei , Bourne, Philip E
Description : The bias in protein structure and function space resulting from experimental limitations and targeting of particular functional classes of proteins by structural biologists has long been recognized, but never continuously quantified. Using the Enzyme Commission and the Gene Ontology classifications ...

Environmental Activism, Social Networks and the Internet

Author(s) : Sullivan, J. , Xie Lei
Description : Social networks and the internet both have a substantial individual effect on environmental activism in China. In this article, we speculate that social linking patterns between environmental actors, which often facilitate activism on the ground, may also exist in cyberspace in the form of an online...

In Silico Elucidation of the Molecular Mechanism Defining the Adverse Effect of Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators

Description : Early identification of adverse effect of preclinical and commercial drugs is crucial in developing highly efficient therapeutics, since unexpected adverse drug effects account for one-third of all drug failures in drug development. To correlate protein–drug interactions at the molecule level with t...

Detecting evolutionary relationships across existing fold space, using sequence order-independent profile–profile alignments

Author(s) : Xie, Lei , Bourne, Philip E.
Description : Here, a scalable, accurate, reliable, and robust protein functional site comparison algorithm is presented. The key components of the algorithm consist of a reduced representation of the protein structure and a sequence order-independent profile–profile alignment (SOIPPA). We show that SOIPPA is abl...
