Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for dismissing displayed elements. In some implementations, a device with a touchscreen is operated using a first touch input threshold value, which may correspond to a minimum distance of input to the touchscreen to identify a gesture. An automobile mode event is detected that initiates an automobile mode for the device. A user input to the touchscreen of the device is received while the device is in the automobile mode. Using a second touch input threshold value corresponding to the automobile mode, the device determines that the user input to the touchscreen of the device represents a gesture corresponding to a user interface element displayed on the device. The device dismisses the user interface element so that the user interface element is no longer displayed.

Abstract: The invention provides a method for identifying a site of protein-protein interaction in a polypeptide. In general, the method involves calculating the difference in property scores between amino acids of a corresponding pair of amino acids on two homologous polypeptides, and identifying a window of contiguous amino acids that have a significant difference in property scores. The contiguous amino acids are predicted to be sites of protein-protein interactions. The invention provides computer systems for performing the methods. The subject methods and computer systems find application in identifying modulators of protein-protein interactions that can serve as inhibitors or activators of the protein from which it was derived, and, as such, find use in a variety or medical and research applications, including drug discovery.
