BAR-PLUS: the Bologna Annotation Resource Plus for functional and structural annotation of protein sequences
We introduce BAR-PLUS (BAR(+)), a web server for functional and structural annotation of protein sequences. BAR(+) is based on a large-scale genome cross comparison and a non-hierarchical clustering procedure characterized by a metric that ensures a reliable transfer of features within clusters. In this version, the method takes advantage of a large-scale pairwise sequence comparison of 13,495,...
متن کاملThe Bologna Annotation Resource (BAR 3.0): improving protein functional annotation
BAR 3.0 updates our server BAR (Bologna Annotation Resource) for predicting protein structural and functional features from sequence. We increase data volume, query capabilities and information conveyed to the user. The core of BAR 3.0 is a graph-based clustering procedure of UniProtKB sequences, following strict pairwise similarity criteria (sequence identity ≥40% with alignment coverage ≥90%)...
متن کاملThe CATH protein family database: a resource for structural and functional annotation of genomes.
Over the last decade, there have been huge increases in the numbers of protein sequences and structures determined. In parallel, many methods have been developed for recognising similarities between these proteins, arising from their common evolutionary background, and for clustering such relatives into protein families. Here we review some of the protein family resources available to the biolo...
متن کاملEnhanced functional annotation of protein sequences via the use of structural descriptors.
In order to circumvent limitations of sequence based methods in the process of making functional predictions for proteins, we have developed a methodology that uses a sequence-to-structure-to-function paradigm. First, an approximate three-dimensional structure is predicted. Then, a three-dimensional descriptor of the functional site, termed a Fuzzy Functional Form, or FFF, is used to screen the...
متن کاملUsing the ENCODE Resource for Functional Annotation of Genetic Variants.
This article illustrates the use of the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE) resource to generate or refine hypotheses from genomic data on disease and other phenotypic traits. First, the goals and history of ENCODE and related epigenomics projects are reviewed. Second, the rationale for ENCODE and the major data types used by ENCODE are briefly described, as are some standard heuristics for t...
