Proasis2® protein structure database and visualisation system – Highlights of What’s New in 2004 Version
DesertSci announces release of Proasis2®, protein structure database and visualisation system, 2004 Version. Highlights of advances include:
- Database Tables have been extended to include additional crystallographic data and files, sequence data, and project specific data
- Easier to download and save files locally, including: pdb files, ligand files, crystallographic data files, sequence data
- Advanced Substructure, Text and Sequence Searching now available
- New interface for checking for recently submitted structures
- Alternative structure display interfaces available
- Even simpler structure submission incorporating blast searches to match projects, internal corporate database look-ups to match ligands, and a customisable parser to handle the Header Section for inhouse pdb files
- New feature that enables highlighting of ligand contacts along protein sequence
- Chime window now includes buttons next to the graphics image enabling easier structure analysis
- Any/all public structure(s) can be easily deposited into the _UNCLASSIFIED project and explored using Proasis2 tools. Any _UNCLASSIFIED structure can be easily classified into a known project from the web interface
- Improved handling of Xray versus Model structures when submitting structures
- Improved tools for automatically updating Proasis2 on a regular basis – for both inhouse and public domain structures
- More curated Public Domain structures and projects deposited
