Vito, a Tool for Refinement of Protein Sequence-structure Alignments. Introduction
Summary: ViTO is a graphical application including an editor of multiple sequence alignment and a 3D structure viewer. It is possible to manipulate alignments containing hundreds of sequences and to display a dozen of structures. ViTO can handle so-called "multiparts" alignments to allow the visualization of complex structures (multi-chain proteins and/or small molecules and DNA) and the editin...
متن کاملPROMALS3D: a tool for multiple protein sequence and structure alignments
Although multiple sequence alignments (MSAs) are essential for a wide range of applications from structure modeling to prediction of functional sites, construction of accurate MSAs for distantly related proteins remains a largely unsolved problem. The rapidly increasing database of spatial structures is a valuable source to improve alignment quality. We explore the use of 3D structural informat...
متن کاملComparative Visualization of Protein Structure-Sequence Alignments
Protein fold recognition (threading) involves the prediction of a protein’s three-dimensional shape based on its similarity to a protein whose structure is known. Fold predictions are low resolution; no effort is made to rotate the protein’s component amino acid side chains into their correct spatial orientations. Rather, the goal is to recognize the protein family member that most closely rese...
متن کاملRefinement by shifting secondary structure elements improves sequence alignments.
Constructing a model of a query protein based on its alignment to a homolog with experimentally determined spatial structure (the template) is still the most reliable approach to structure prediction. Alignment errors are the main bottleneck for homology modeling when the query is distantly related to the template. Alignment methods often misalign secondary structural elements by a few residues...
متن کاملThe HSSP database of protein structure-sequence alignments
HSSP is a derived database merging structural (3-D) and sequence (1-D) information. For each protein of known 3-D structure from the Protein Data Bank (PDB), the database has a multiple sequence alignment of all available homologues and a sequence profile characteristic of the family. The list of homologues is the result of a database search in SwissProt using a position-weighted dynamic progra...
