Protein Peeling 3D: new tools for analyzing protein structures
نویسندگان
چکیده
UNLABELLED We present an improved version of our Protein Peeling web server dedicated to the analysis of protein structure architecture through the identification of protein units produced by an iterative splitting algorithm. New features include identification of structural domains, detection of unstructured terminal elements and evaluation of the stability of protein unit structures. AVAILABILITY The website is free and open to all users with no login requirements at http://www.dsimb.inserm.fr/dsimb-tools/peeling3.

Designing and analyzing the structure of Tat-BoNT/A(1-448) fusion protein: An in silico approach
Clostridium botulinum type A (BoNT/A) produces a neurotoxin recently found to be useful as an injectable drug for the treatment of abnormal muscle contractions. The catalytic domain of this toxin which is responsible for the main toxin activity is a zinc metalloprotease that inhibits the release of neurotransmitter mediators in neuromuscular junctions. A cell penetrating cationic peptide, Tat, ...

Background & Objective: A main contest in chemotherapy is to obtain regulator above the biodistribution of cytotoxic drugs. The utmost promising strategy comprises of drugs coupled with a tumor-targeting bearer that results in wide cytotoxic activity and particular delivery. The B-subunit of Shiga toxin (STxB) is nontoxic and possesses low immunogenicity that exactly binds to t...
متن کامل'Protein Peeling': an approach for splitting a 3D protein structure into compact fragments
MOTIVATION The object of this study is to propose a new method to identify small compact units that compose protein three-dimensional structures. These fragments, called 'protein units (PU)', are a new level of description to well understand and analyze the organization of protein structures. The method only works from the contact probability matrix, i.e. the inter Calpha-distances translated i...
متن کاملProtein Peeling 2: a web server to convert protein structures into series of protein units
Protein Peeling 2 (PP2) is a web server for the automatic identification of protein units (PUs) given the 3D coordinates of a protein. PUs are an intermediate level of protein structure description between protein domains and secondary structures. It is a new tool to better understand and analyze the organization of protein structures. PP2 uses only the matrices of protein contact probabilities...
متن کاملIn silico Analysis and Molecular Modeling of RNA Polymerase, Sigma S (RpoS) Protein in Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1
Background: Sigma factors are proteins that regulate transcription in bacteria. Sigma factors can be activated in response to different environmental conditions. The rpoS (RNA polymerase, sigma S) gene encodes sigma-38 (σ38, or RpoS), a 37.8 kDa protein in Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) strains. RpoS is a central regulator of the general stress response and operates in both retroa...
