"Protein structure analysis is a very important research topic in the molecular biology of the post-genomic era. The root mean square deviation (RMSD) is the most frequently used measure for comparing two protein three-dimensional (3-D) structures," scientists writing in the Journal of Computational Biology report. "In this paper, we deal with two fundamental problems related to the RMSD. We first deal with a problem called the ''range RMSD query'' problem. Given an aligned pair of structures, the problem is to compute the RMSD between two aligned substructures of them without gaps. This problem has many applications in protein structure analysis. We propose a...
