ExonVisualiser - application for visualization exon units in 2D and 3D protein structures.

ABSTRACT: UNLABELLED:The web application oriented on identification and visualization of protein regions encoded by exons is presented. The Exon Visualiser can be used for visualisation on different levels of protein structure: at the primary (sequence) level and secondary structures level, as well as at the level of tertiary protein structure. The programme is suitable for processing data for all genes which have protein expressions deposited in the PDB database. The procedure steps implemented in the application: I) loading exons sequences and theirs coordinates from GenBank file as well as protein sequences: CDS from GenBank and aminoacid sequence from PDB II) consensus sequence creation (comparing amino acid sequences form PDB file with the CDS sequence from GenBank file) III) matching exon coordinates IV) visualisation in 2D and 3D protein structures. Presented web-tool among others provides the color-coded graphical display of protein sequences and chains in three dimensional protein structures which are correlated with the corresponding exons.

Project description:Protein structure is connected with its function and interaction and plays an extremely important role in protein characterization. As one of the most important analytical methods for protein characterization, Proteomics is widely used to determine protein composition, quantitation, interaction, and even structures. However, due to the gap between identified proteins by proteomics and available 3D structures, it was very challenging, if not impossible, to visualize proteomics results in 3D and further explore the structural aspects of proteomics experiments. Recently, two groups of researchers from DeepMind and Baker lab have independently published protein structure prediction tools that can help us obtain predicted protein structures for the whole human proteome. Although there is still debate on the validity of some of the predicted structures, it is no doubt that these represent the most accurate predictions to date. More importantly, this enabled us to visualize the majority of human proteins for the first time. To help other researchers best utilize these protein structure predictions, we present the Sequence Coverage Visualizer (SCV), http://scv.lab.gy, a web application for protein sequence coverage 3D visualization. Here we showed a few possible usages of the SCV, including the labeling of post-translational modifications and isotope labeling experiments. These results highlight the usefulness of such 3D visualization for proteomics experiments and how SCV can turn a regular result list into structural insights. Furthermore, when used together with limited proteolysis, we demonstrated that SCV can help validate and compare different protein structures, including predicted ones and existing PDB entries. By performing limited proteolysis on native proteins at various time points, SCV can visualize the progress of the digestion. This time-series data further allowed us to compare the predicted structure and existing PDB entries. Although not deterministic, these comparisons could be used to refine current predictions further and represent an important step towards a complete and correct protein structure database. Overall, SCV is a convenient and powerful tool for visualizing proteomics results.
