  2. David S. Eisenberg (born 15 March 1939 [citation needed]) is an American biochemist and biophysicist best known for his contributions to structural biology and computational molecular biology.

  3. David Eisenberg and his research group study the structural basis for conversion of normal proteins to the amyloid state and conversion of prions to the infectious state. They use bioinformatics and structural tools to determine the atomic-level structure of amyloid spines and toxic units, and design inhibitors of amyloid toxicity.

  8. Oct 26, 1995 · A central question of biochemistry is how the amino acid sequence of a protein determines its three-dimensional structure. The goal is to be able to predict the structure from the sequence, a matter of great practical importance. One computational approach being developed is to describe a 3D structure by a 3D profile.
