Integrating public databases into an existing protein visualization and modeling program - BRAGI
نویسندگان
چکیده
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 and the DALI server. Linking and visualizing different types of information hopefully allow the structure function of proteins to be appreciated more intuitively. Availability: http://bragi.gbf.de Cost: Freeware, but you have to sign a license Copyright: GBF Braunschweig and CUBIC Köln, databases by their owners. Some databases have restricted access for commercial usage (e.g. DALI or SWISSPROT)

BRAGI: linking and visualization of database information in a 3D viewer and modeling tool
BRAGI is a well-established package for viewing and modeling of three-dimensional (3D) structures of biological macromolecules. A new version of BRAGI has been developed that is supported on Windows, Linux and SGI. The user interface has been rewritten to give the standard 'look and feel' of the chosen operating system and to provide a more intuitive, easier usage. A large number of new feature...

متن کاملAnalysis and Visualization of Gene Expressions and Protein Structures
This paper describes a web-based interactive framework for the analysis and visualization of gene expressions and protein structures. The formulation of the proposed framework was encountered by many challenges due to the wide range of relevant analysis and visualization techniques, in addition to the existence of a diversity of biological data types, on which these techniques operate. The main...
متن کاملSeamless Integration of Diverse Data Types into Exploratory Visualization Systems
Visual data exploration involves presenting data in some graphical form and allowing the human to interactively gain insight into the data. Visual data exploration techniques have proven to be very useful for exploratory data analysis, especially for mining large databases. However, the lack of explicit content semantics within the framework of the visualization tool makes interpretation of the...
متن کاملIntegrating Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) with Process Modeling
One of the main obstacles of directing process design/optimization with LCA is the disconnect between the two despite significant overlapping of information needed for both analyses. To bridge this gap, an integrated system with a process modeling environment, an LCA model, an uncertainty analysis tool, and chemical databases are proposed. The process modeling environment allows easy accumulati...
