MFPPI – Multi FASTA ProtParam Interface
نویسندگان
چکیده
Physico-chemical properties reflect the functional and structural characteristics of a protein. The comparative study of the physicochemical properties is important to know role of a protein in exploring its molecular evolution. A number of online and offline tools are available for calculating the physico-chemical properties of a single protein sequence. However, a tool is not available for a comparative study with graphical visualization of Multi-FASTA sequences. Hence, we describe the development and utility of MFPPI V.1.0 (a web interface developed in JAVA platform) to input each FASTA sequence from Multi-FASTA file into the ProtParam web server for the calculation of physico-chemical properties. MFPPI V.1.0 calculates different physico-chemical properties for a given set of proteins in a single run and saves the data in the MSExcel sheet. Furthermore, it provides a graphical representation of protein physico-chemical properties for analysis and visualization of data in a user-friendly manner. Therefore, the output from the analysis helps to understand compositional changes and functional relationship in evolution among organisms. We have demonstrated the utility of MFPPI V.1.0 using 17 mtATP6 protein sequences from different mammalian species. It is available for free at http://insilicogenomics.in/mfpcalc/mfppi.html.

Visual BLAST and visual FASTA: graphic workbenches for interactive analysis of full BLAST and FASTA outputs under Microsoft Windows 95/NT
MOTIVATION When routinely analysing protein sequences, detailed analysis of database search results made with BLAST and FASTA becomes exceedingly time consuming and tedious work, as the resultant file may contain a list of hundreds of potential homologies. The interpretation of these results is usually carried out with a text editor which is not a convenient tool for this analysis. In addition,...

MOTIVATION The data deluge phenomenon is becoming a serious problem in most genomic centers. To alleviate it, general purpose tools, such as gzip, are used to compress the data. However, although pervasive and easy to use, these tools fall short when the intention is to reduce as much as possible the data, for example, for medium- and long-term storage. A number of algorithms have been proposed...

YASS is a DNA local alignment tool based on an efficient and sensitive filtering algorithm. It applies transition-constrained seeds to specify the most probable conserved motifs between homologous sequences, combined with a flexible hit criterion used to identify groups of seeds that are likely to exhibit significant alignments. A web interface (http://www.loria.fr/projects/YASS/) is available ...
