VISTAL - a new 2D visualization tool of protein 3D structural alignments
نویسندگان
چکیده
UNLABELLED We offer a tool, denoted VISTAL, for two-dimensional visualization of protein structural alignments. VISTAL describes aligned structures as a series of matched secondary structure elements, colored according to the three-dimensional distance of their Calpha atoms. AVAILABILITY VISTAL can be downloaded from http://trantor.bioc.columbia.edu/~kolodny/software.html.

Vito, a Tool for Refinement of Protein Sequence-structure Alignments. Introduction
Summary: ViTO is a graphical application including an editor of multiple sequence alignment and a 3D structure viewer. It is possible to manipulate alignments containing hundreds of sequences and to display a dozen of structures. ViTO can handle so-called "multiparts" alignments to allow the visualization of complex structures (multi-chain proteins and/or small molecules and DNA) and the editin...
متن کاملiPARTS: an improved tool of pairwise alignment of RNA tertiary structures
iPARTS is an improved web server for aligning two RNA 3D structures based on a structural alphabet (SA)-based approach. In particular, we first derive a Ramachandran-like diagram of RNAs by plotting nucleotides on a 2D axis using their two pseudo-torsion angles eta and . Next, we apply the affinity propagation clustering algorithm to this eta- plot to obtain an SA of 23-nt conformations. We fin...
متن کاملBAliBASE 3.0: latest developments of the multiple sequence alignment benchmark.
Multiple sequence alignment is one of the cornerstones of modern molecular biology. It is used to identify conserved motifs, to determine protein domains, in 2D/3D structure prediction by homology and in evolutionary studies. Recently, high-throughput technologies such as genome sequencing and structural proteomics have lead to an explosion in the amount of sequence and structure information av...
متن کاملIntegrating public databases into an existing protein visualization and modeling program - BRAGI
BRAGI offers an efficient visual access to sequence alignment information, 3D alignments and annotated protein structure-function correlations. As a new feature we have mapped information from SWISSPROT and InterPro to individual entries of the PDB. 3D structural alignments from DALI database were converted to XML files for easy access in BRAGI. BRAGI provides interactive access to NCBI-Blast a...
متن کاملNovel protein folds and their nonsequential structural analogs.
Newly determined protein structures are classified to belong to a new fold, if the structures are sufficiently dissimilar from all other so far known protein structures. To analyze structural similarities of proteins, structure alignment tools are used. We demonstrate that the usage of nonsequential structure alignment tools, which neglect the polypeptide chain connectivity, can yield structure...
