DINAMO: interactive protein alignment and model building
MOTIVATION To facilitate the process of structure prediction by both comparative modeling and fold recognition, we describe DINAMO, an interactive protein alignment building and model evaluation tool that dynamically couples a multiple sequence alignment editor to a molecular graphics display. DINAMO allows the user to optimize the alignment and model to satisfy the known heuristics of protein ...
متن کاملDINAMO: a coupled sequence alignment editor/molecular graphics tool for interactive homology modeling of proteins.
Gaining functional information about a novel protein is a universal problem in biomedical research. With the explosive growth of the protein sequence and structural databases, it is becoming increasingly common for researchers to attempt to build a three-dimensional model of their protein of interest in order to gain information about its structure and interactions with other molecules. The two...
متن کاملOn Building an Interactive Alignment Tool†
Sequence comparison has wide applications to computer science, molecular biology, speech processing, and so on. In molecular biology, it is often used to reveal similarities among sequences, study gene regulation, or even infer evolutionary trees. This paper summarizes the techniques that are useful for building an interactive sequence alignment tool. In order to analyze very long DNA sequences...
متن کاملInteractive Model Building Environments
Acknowledgements We would like to thank Joost Breuker and Bob Wielinga for their support and comments on the research presented in the article.Abstract Interactive model building environments are educational software systems which support scientific investigation by allowing students to build models and experiment with them. The basic idea is that students use the model building environment to ...
متن کاملComparative protein structure modeling by iterative alignment, model building and model assessment.
Comparative or homology protein structure modeling is severely limited by errors in the alignment of a modeled sequence with related proteins of known three-dimensional structure. To ameliorate this problem, we have developed an automated method that optimizes both the alignment and the model implied by it. This task is achieved by a genetic algorithm protocol that starts with a set of initial ...
