Abstract
Proteins are macromolecules central to biological processes that display a dynamic and complex surface.
They display multiple conformations differing by local (residue side-chain) or global (loop or domain) structural
changes which can impact drastically their global and local shape. Since the structure of proteins is linked to
their function and the disruption of their interactions can lead to a disease state, it is of major importance to
characterize their shape. In the present work, we report the performance in enrichment of six shape-retrieval
methods (3D-FusionNet, GSGW, HAPT, DEM, SIWKS and WKS) on a 2 267 protein structures dataset generated
for this protein shape retrieval track of SHREC’18
