Dynamite extended: two new services to simplify protein dynamic analysis

Abstract

We describe two additional services now available as part of the previously described Dynamite protein dynamics web service. Dynatraj provides principle component analysis and visualization of modes of motion for a user's own ensemble of protein structures, e.g. from Molecular Dynamics, NMR or experimental ensembles. Dynapocket predicts probable configurations of a protein pocket from a single known structure. Both have been provided in response to requests from users for additional functionality from the Dynamite server. Like Dynamite, both are available free of charge to all users.
