Critical Assessment of Prediction of Interactions
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Critical Assessment of Prediction of Interactions (CAPRI) is a community-wide experiment (though it is commonly referred to as a competition) in protein-protein docking structure prediction.
The CAPRI[1] is an ongoing series of events in which researchers throughout the community attempt to dock the same proteins, as provided by the assessors. Rounds take place approximately every 6 months. Each round contains between one and six target protein-protein complexes whose structures have been recently determined experimentally. The coordinates and are held privately by the assessors, with the co-operation of the structural biologists who determined them. The assessment of submissions is double blind.
The CASP assessment is a similar exercise in the field of protein structure prediction.
