KINARI-Web: a server for protein rigidity analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
KINARI-Web is an interactive web server for performing rigidity analysis and visually exploring rigidity properties of proteins. It also provides tools for pre-processing the input data, such as selecting relevant chains from PDB files, adding hydrogen atoms and identifying stabilizing interactions. KINARI-Web offers a quick-start option for beginners, and highly customizable features for the experienced user. Chains, residues or atoms, as well as stabilizing constraints can be selected, removed or added, and the user can designate how different chemical interactions should be modeled during rigidity analysis. The enhanced Jmol-based visualizer allows for zooming in, highlighting or investigating different calculated rigidity properties of a molecular structure. KINARI-Web is freely available at http://kinari.cs.umass.edu.

KINARI-Mutagen Case Study: 1CRN Crambin
Figure 1: Protein 1CRN, Crambin, is a 46 amino acid protein composed of two alpha helices and a short anti-parallel beta sheet (1(a)). When rigidity analysis is performed on the non-mutated form of Crambin, the majority of the atoms in the proteins core are part of a single large rigid cluster (shown in purple))(1(b)). KINARI-Mutagen was used to generate several in-silico mutants of crambin. Wh...
متن کاملCNA web server: rigidity theory-based thermal unfolding simulations of proteins for linking structure, (thermo-)stability, and function
The Constraint Network Analysis (CNA) web server provides a user-friendly interface to the CNA approach developed in our laboratory for linking results from rigidity analyses to biologically relevant characteristics of a biomolecular structure. The CNA web server provides a refined modeling of thermal unfolding simulations that considers the temperature dependence of hydrophobic tethers and com...
متن کاملInvestigation on Reliability Estimation of Loosely Coupled Software as a Service Execution Using Clustered and Non-Clustered Web Server
Evaluating the reliability of loosely coupled Software as a Service through the paradigm of a cluster-based and non-cluster-based web server is considered to be an important attribute for the service delivery and execution. We proposed a novel method for measuring the reliability of Software as a Service execution through load testing. The fault count of the model against the stresses of users ...
متن کاملIn Silico Prediction and Docking of Tertiary Structure of Multifunctional Protein X of Hepatitis B Virus
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a universal health problem and may result into acute, fulminant, chronic hepatitis liver cirrhosis, or hepatocellular carcinoma. Sequence for protein X of HBV was retrieved from Uniprot database. ProtParam from ExPAsy server was used to investigate the physicochemical properties of the protein. Homology modeling was carried out using Phyre2 server, and refin...
متن کاملSimulating Protein Motions with Rigidity Analysis
Protein motions, ranging from molecular flexibility to large-scale conformational change, play an essential role in many biochemical processes. Despite the explosion in our knowledge of structural and functional data, our understanding of protein movement is still very limited. In previous work, we developed and validated a motion planning based method for mapping protein folding pathways from ...
