Global-to-Global Protein Structure Comparisons:
|
|
ProteinDBS is the first real-time search engine for retrieving similar
protein tertiary structures in Protein Data Bank (PDB). This system provides
two types of query method: query by PDB protein chain ID and by 3D
coordinates of newly-discovered proteins in PDB format. With computational
techniques, similar protein structures with ranked order will be returned to
users in seconds. Our database proteins are weekly updated to be consistent
with PDB database.

SCOP Fold Classifications:
|
|
To understand the information archived in the protein structures, Structural
Classification of Protein Database (SCOP) manually constructed by human
experts classifies similar protein structures in the same fold hierarchy.
Even though this approach is believed to be more reliable than applying
structural alignment tools for structural classifications, it is labor
intensive. We build a real-time system, E-PREDICT, which supports fast
classification of newly-discovered proteins into SCOP fold. Users are allowed to
submit 3-D coordinates of protein structures in the PDB format. A list of
candidate SCOP folds is then quickly ranked and displayed to users.
