PDBparam: Online Resource for Computing Structural Parameters of Proteins.

ABSTRACT: Understanding the structure-function relationship in proteins is a longstanding goal in molecular and computational biology. The development of structure-based parameters has helped to relate the structure with the function of a protein. Although several structural features have been reported in the literature, no single server can calculate a wide-ranging set of structure-based features from protein three-dimensional structures. In this work, we have developed a web-based tool, PDBparam, for computing more than 50 structure-based features for any given protein structure. These features are classified into four major categories: (i) interresidue interactions, which include short-, medium-, and long-range interactions, contact order, long-range order, total contact distance, contact number,
