PROTINFO: Secondary and tertiary protein structure prediction.

Abstract

Information about the secondary and tertiary structure of a protein sequence can greatly assist biologists in the generation and testing of hypotheses, as well as design of experiments. The PROTINFO server enables users to submit a protein sequence and request a prediction of the three-dimensional (tertiary) structure based on comparative modeling, fold generation and de novo methods developed by the authors. In addition, users can submit NMR chemical shift data and request protein secondary structure assignment that is based on using neural networks to combine the chemical shifts with secondary structure predictions. The server is available at http://protinfo.compbio.washington.edu.
