NSiteMatch: Prediction of Binding Sites of Nucleotides by Identifying the Structure Similarity of Local Surface Patches

Table 1

Statistical significance of the differences in distances measured using between the predicted and the actual location of the binding site measured using Wilcoxon signed-rank test. The “+” indicates that NSiteMatch is significantly better than a method in a given column with and “=” denotes the fact that NSiteMatch and a method in a given column are not significantly different.
