IWS: integrated web server for protein sequence and structure analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Unlabelled

Rapid increase in protein sequence information from genome sequencing projects demand the intervention of bioinformatics tools to recognize interesting gene-products and associated function. Often, multiple algorithms need to be employed to improve accuracy in predictions and several structure prediction algorithms are on the public domain. Here, we report the availability of an Integrated Web-server as a bioinformatics online package dedicated for in-silico analysis of protein sequence and structure data (IWS). IWS provides web interface to both in-house and widely accepted programs from major bioinformatics groups, organized as 10 different modules. IWS also provides interactive images for Analysis Work Flow, which will provide transparency to the user to carry out analysis by moving across modules seamlessly and to perform their predictions in a rapid manner.

AlignMe--a membrane protein sequence alignment web server.

Project description:We present a web server for pair-wise alignment of membrane protein sequences, using the program AlignMe. The server makes available two operational modes of AlignMe: (i) sequence to sequence alignment, taking two sequences in fasta format as input, combining information about each sequence from multiple sources and producing a pair-wise alignment (PW mode); and (ii) alignment of two multiple sequence alignments to create family-averaged hydropathy profile alignments (HP mode). For the PW sequence alignment mode, four different optimized parameter sets are provided, each suited to pairs of sequences with a specific similarity level. These settings utilize different types of inputs: (position-specific) substitution matrices, secondary structure predictions and transmembrane propensities from transmembrane predictions or hydrophobicity scales. In the second (HP) mode, each input multiple sequence alignment is converted into a hydrophobicity profile averaged over the provided set of sequence homologs; the two profiles are then aligned. The HP mode enables qualitative comparison of transmembrane topologies (and therefore potentially of 3D folds) of two membrane proteins, which can be useful if the proteins have low sequence similarity. In summary, the AlignMe web server provides user-friendly access to a set of tools for analysis and comparison of membrane protein sequences. Access is available at http://www.bioinfo.mpg.de/AlignMe.

GalaxyHomomer: a web server for protein homo-oligomer structure prediction from a monomer sequence or structure.

Project description:Homo-oligomerization of proteins is abundant in nature, and is often intimately related with the physiological functions of proteins, such as in metabolism, signal transduction or immunity. Information on the homo-oligomer structure is therefore important to obtain a molecular-level understanding of protein functions and their regulation. Currently available web servers predict protein homo-oligomer structures either by template-based modeling using homo-oligomer templates selected from the protein structure database or by ab initio docking of monomer structures resolved by experiment or predicted by computation. The GalaxyHomomer server, freely accessible at http://galaxy.seoklab.org/homomer, carries out template-based modeling, ab initio docking or both depending on the availability of proper oligomer templates. It also incorporates recently developed model refinement methods that can consistently improve model quality. Moreover, the server provides additional options that can be chosen by the user depending on the availability of information on the monomer structure, oligomeric state and locations of unreliable/flexible loops or termini. The performance of the server was better than or comparable to that of other available methods when tested on benchmark sets and in a recent CASP performed in a blind fashion.

PROMALS web server for accurate multiple protein sequence alignments.

Project description:Multiple sequence alignments are essential in homology inference, structure modeling, functional prediction and phylogenetic analysis. We developed a web server that constructs multiple protein sequence alignments using PROMALS, a progressive method that improves alignment quality by using additional homologs from PSI-BLAST searches and secondary structure predictions from PSIPRED. PROMALS shows higher alignment accuracy than other advanced methods, such as MUMMALS, ProbCons, MAFFT and SPEM. The PROMALS web server takes FASTA format protein sequences as input. The output includes a colored alignment augmented with information about sequence grouping, predicted secondary structures and positional conservation. The PROMALS web server is available at: http://prodata.swmed.edu/promals/

BRIO: a web server for RNA sequence and structure motif scan.

Project description:The interaction between RNA and RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) has a key role in the regulation of gene expression, in RNA stability, and in many other biological processes. RBPs accomplish these functions by binding target RNA molecules through specific sequence and structure motifs. The identification of these binding motifs is therefore fundamental to improve our knowledge of the cellular processes and how they are regulated. Here, we present BRIO (BEAM RNA Interaction mOtifs), a new web server designed for the identification of sequence and structure RNA-binding motifs in one or more RNA molecules of interest. BRIO enables the user to scan over 2508 sequence motifs and 2296 secondary structure motifs identified in Homo sapiens and Mus musculus, in three different types of experiments (PAR-CLIP, eCLIP, HITS). The motifs are associated with the binding of 186 RBPs and 69 protein domains. The web server is freely available at http://brio.bio.uniroma2.it.

RaptorX-Property: a web server for protein structure property prediction.

Project description:RaptorX Property (http://raptorx2.uchicago.edu/StructurePropertyPred/predict/) is a web server predicting structure property of a protein sequence without using any templates. It outperforms other servers, especially for proteins without close homologs in PDB or with very sparse sequence profile (i.e. carries little evolutionary information). This server employs a powerful in-house deep learning model DeepCNF (Deep Convolutional Neural Fields) to predict secondary structure (SS), solvent accessibility (ACC) and disorder regions (DISO). DeepCNF not only models complex sequence-structure relationship by a deep hierarchical architecture, but also interdependency between adjacent property labels. Our experimental results show that, tested on CASP10, CASP11 and the other benchmarks, this server can obtain ?84% Q3 accuracy for 3-state SS, ?72% Q8 accuracy for 8-state SS, ?66% Q3 accuracy for 3-state solvent accessibility, and ?0.89 area under the ROC curve (AUC) for disorder prediction.

iSARST: an integrated SARST web server for rapid protein structural similarity searches.

Project description:iSARST is a web server for efficient protein structural similarity searches. It is a multi-processor, batch-processing and integrated implementation of several structural comparison tools and two database searching methods: SARST for common structural homologs and CPSARST for homologs with circular permutations. iSARST allows users submitting multiple PDB/SCOP entry IDs or an archive file containing many structures. After scanning the target database using SARST/CPSARST, the ordering of hits are refined with conventional structure alignment tools such as FAST, TM-align and SAMO, which are run in a PC cluster. In this way, iSARST achieves a high running speed while preserving the high precision of refinement engines. The final outputs include tables listing co-linear or circularly permuted homologs of the query proteins and a functional summary of the best hits. Superimposed structures can be examined through an interactive and informative visualization tool. iSARST provides the first batch mode structural comparison web service for both co-linear homologs and circular permutants. It can serve as a rapid annotation system for functionally unknown or hypothetical proteins, which are increasing rapidly in this post-genomics era. The server can be accessed at http://sarst.life.nthu.edu.tw/iSARST/.

PVS: a web server for protein sequence variability analysis tuned to facilitate conserved epitope discovery.

Project description:We have developed PVS (Protein Variability Server), a web-based tool that uses several variability metrics to compute the absolute site variability in multiple protein-sequence alignments (MSAs). The variability is then assigned to a user-selected reference sequence consisting of either the first sequence in the alignment or a consensus sequence. Subsequently, PVS performs tasks that are relevant for structure-function studies, such as plotting and visualizing the variability in a relevant 3D-structure. Neatly, PVS also implements some other tasks that are thought to facilitate the design of epitope discovery-driven vaccines against pathogens where sequence variability largely contributes to immune evasion. Thus, PVS can return the conserved fragments in the MSA-as defined by a user-provided variability threshold-and locate them in a relevant 3D-structure. Furthermore, PVS can return a variability-masked sequence, which can be directly submitted to the RANKPEP server for the prediction of conserved T-cell epitopes. PVS is freely available at: http://imed.med.ucm.es/PVS/.

PNImodeler: web server for inferring protein-binding nucleotides from sequence data.

Project description:BackgroundInteractions between DNA and proteins are essential to many biological processes such as transcriptional regulation and DNA replication. With the increased availability of structures of protein-DNA complexes, several computational studies have been conducted to predict DNA binding sites in proteins. However, little attempt has been made to predict protein binding sites in DNA.ResultsFrom an extensive analysis of protein-DNA complexes, we identified powerful features of DNA and protein sequences which can be used in predicting protein binding sites in DNA sequences. We developed two support vector machine (SVM) models that predict protein binding nucleotides from DNA and/or protein sequences. One SVM model that used DNA sequence data alone achieved a sensitivity of 73.4%, a specificity of 64.8%, an accuracy of 68.9% and a correlation coefficient of 0.382 with a test dataset that was not used in training. Another SVM model that used both DNA and protein sequences achieved a sensitivity of 67.6%, a specificity of 74.3%, an accuracy of 71.4% and a correlation coefficient of 0.418.ConclusionsPredicting binding sites in double-stranded DNAs is a more difficult task than predicting binding sites in single-stranded molecules. Our study showed that protein binding sites in double-stranded DNA molecules can be predicted with a comparable accuracy as those in single-stranded molecules. Our study also demonstrated that using both DNA and protein sequences resulted in a better prediction performance than using DNA sequence data alone. The SVM models and datasets constructed in this study are available at http://bclab.inha.ac.kr/pnimodeler.
