Geno3D: automatic comparative molecular modelling of protein
نویسندگان
چکیده
Geno3D (http://geno3d-pbil.ibcp.fr) is an automatic web server for protein molecular modelling. Starting with a query protein sequence, the server performs the homology modelling in six successive steps: (i) identify homologous proteins with known 3D structures by using PSI-BLAST; (ii) provide the user all potential templates through a very convenient user interface for target selection; (iii) perform the alignment of both query and subject sequences; (iv) extract geometrical restraints (dihedral angles and distances) for corresponding atoms between the query and the template; (v) perform the 3D construction of the protein by using a distance geometry approach and (vi) finally send the results by e-mail to the user.

Comparative modelling: an essential methodology for protein structure prediction in the post-genomic era.
The gap between the number of protein sequences and protein structures is increasing rapidly, exacerbated by the completion of numerous genome projects now flooding into public databases. To fill this gap, comparative protein modelling is widely considered the most accurate technique for predicting the three-dimensional shape of proteins. High-throughput, automatic protein modelling should cons...

Superoxide dismutase play important roles in iron-respiratory bacteria such as Geobacteraceae as an antioxidant defense, and probably an effective enzyme of electron transfer network. Regarding the application of iron-respiratory bacteria in environmental biotechnology particularly biodegradation and bioremediation, understanding the mechanism of inhibition/induction of superoxide dismutase by ...
متن کاملMolecular Modelling and Evaluation of Hidden Information in ABCB11 Gene Mutations
Background: Cholestatic disorders are divided in the extra and intra-hepatic that created due to the severe liver diseases. ABCB11 encodes the bile salt export pump and this gene is mutated in several forms of intrahepatic cholestasis. So far, some molecular features of this gene was studies.Objective: Using a developed web server, we identified high number of rare codons in this gene, and four...

ProDom is a comprehensive database of protein domain families generated from the global comparison of all available protein sequences. Recent improvements include the use of three-dimensional (3D) information from the SCOP database; a completely redesigned web interface (http://www.toulouse.inra.fr/prodom.html); visualization of ProDom domains on 3D structures; coupling of ProDom analysis with ...
متن کاملIn silico protein recombination: enhancing template and sequence alignment selection for comparative protein modelling.
Comparative modelling of proteins is a predictive technique to build an atomic model for a given amino acid sequence, on the basis of the structures of other proteins (templates) that have been determined experimentally. Critical problems arise in this procedure: selecting the correct templates, aligning the query sequence with them and building the non-conserved surface loops. In this work, we...
