Late N. Srinivasan belongs to the GN Ramachandran lineage of protein structural analysts. His role in the advancement of the structure based understanding of signal transduction, protein kinase analyses and host-pathogen interactions both developing and using Bioinformatics tools for protein-protein interactions, protein dynamics, remote homology detection and polypeptide stereochemistry is well documented in the literature. Thus, his contribution to the understanding of protein function through structural analysis, using computational models and tools, is exceptional.
