3dRNA v2.0: An Updated Web Server for RNA 3D Structure Prediction.

ABSTRACT: 3D structures of RNAs are the basis for understanding their biological functions. However, experimentally solved RNA 3D structures are very limited in comparison with known RNA sequences up to now. Therefore, many computational methods have been proposed to solve this problem, including our 3dRNA. In recent years, 3dRNA has been greatly improved by adding several important features, including structure sampling, structure ranking and structure optimization under residue-residue restraints. Particularly, the optimization procedure with restraints enables 3dRNA to treat pseudoknots in a new way. These new features of 3dRNA can greatly promote its performance and have been integrated into the 3dRNA v2.0 web server. Here we introduce these new features in the 3dRNA v2.0 web server for the users.

Vfold-Pipeline: a web server for RNA 3D structure prediction from sequences.

Project description:SummaryRNA 3D structures are critical for understanding their functions and for RNA-targeted drug design. However, experimental determination of RNA 3D structures is laborious and technically challenging, leading to the huge gap between the number of sequences and the availability of RNA structures. Therefore, the computer-aided structure prediction of RNA 3D structures from sequences becomes a highly desirable solution to this problem. Here, we present a pipeline server for RNA 3D structure prediction from sequences that integrates the Vfold2D, Vfold3D and VfoldLA programs. The Vfold2D program can incorporate the SHAPE experimental data in 2D structure prediction. The pipeline can also automatically extract 2D structural constraints from the Rfam database. Furthermore, with a significantly expanded 3D template database for various motifs, this Vfold-Pipeline server can efficiently return accurate 3D structure predictions or reliable initial 3D structures for further refinement.Availability and implementationhttp://rna.physics.missouri.edu/vfoldPipeline/index.html. The data underlying this article have been provided in the article and in its online supplementary material.Supplementary informationSupplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.

Gentrepid V2.0: a web server for candidate disease gene prediction.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Candidate disease gene prediction is a rapidly developing area of bioinformatics research with the potential to deliver great benefits to human health. As experimental studies detecting associations between genetic intervals and disease proliferate, better bioinformatic techniques that can expand and exploit the data are required. DESCRIPTION: Gentrepid is a web resource which predicts and prioritizes candidate disease genes for both Mendelian and complex diseases. The system can take input from linkage analysis of single genetic intervals or multiple marker loci from genome-wide association studies. The underlying database of the Gentrepid tool sources data from numerous gene and protein resources, taking advantage of the wealth of biological information available. Using known disease gene information from OMIM, the system predicts and prioritizes disease gene candidates that participate in the same protein pathways or share similar protein domains. Alternatively, using an ab initio approach, the system can detect enrichment of these protein annotations without prior knowledge of the phenotype. CONCLUSIONS: The system aims to integrate the wealth of protein information currently available with known and novel phenotype/genotype information to acquire knowledge of biological mechanisms underpinning disease. We have updated the system to facilitate analysis of GWAS data and the study of complex diseases. Application of the system to GWAS data on hypertension using the ICBP data is provided as an example. An interesting prediction is a ZIP transporter additional to the one found by the ICBP analysis. The webserver URL is https://www.gentrepid.org/.

CENTROIDFOLD: a web server for RNA secondary structure prediction.

Project description:The CENTROIDFOLD web server (http://www.ncrna.org/centroidfold/) is a web application for RNA secondary structure prediction powered by one of the most accurate prediction engine. The server accepts two kinds of sequence data: a single RNA sequence and a multiple alignment of RNA sequences. It responses with a prediction result shown as a popular base-pair notation and a graph representation. PDF version of the graph representation is also available. For a multiple alignment sequence, the server predicts a common secondary structure. Usage of the server is quite simple. You can paste a single RNA sequence (FASTA or plain sequence text) or a multiple alignment (CLUSTAL-W format) into the textarea then click on the 'execute CentroidFold' button. The server quickly responses with a prediction result. The major advantage of this server is that it employs our original CentroidFold software as its prediction engine which scores the best accuracy in our benchmark results. Our web server is freely available with no login requirement.

RDfolder: a web server for prediction of RNA secondary structure.

Project description:Prediction of RNA secondary structure is important in the functional analysis of RNA molecules. The RDfolder web server described in this paper provides two methods for prediction of RNA secondary structure: random stacking of helical regions and helical regions distribution. The random stacking method predicts secondary structure by Monte Carlo simulations. The method of helical regions distribution predicts secondary structure based on the helices that appear most frequently in the set of structures, which are generated by the random stacking method. The RDfolder web server can be accessed at http://rna.cbi.pku.edu.cn.

Vfold: a web server for RNA structure and folding thermodynamics prediction.

Project description:BackgroundThe ever increasing discovery of non-coding RNAs leads to unprecedented demand for the accurate modeling of RNA folding, including the predictions of two-dimensional (base pair) and three-dimensional all-atom structures and folding stabilities. Accurate modeling of RNA structure and stability has far-reaching impact on our understanding of RNA functions in human health and our ability to design RNA-based therapeutic strategies.ResultsThe Vfold server offers a web interface to predict (a) RNA two-dimensional structure from the nucleotide sequence, (b) three-dimensional structure from the two-dimensional structure and the sequence, and (c) folding thermodynamics (heat capacity melting curve) from the sequence. To predict the two-dimensional structure (base pairs), the server generates an ensemble of structures, including loop structures with the different intra-loop mismatches, and evaluates the free energies using the experimental parameters for the base stacks and the loop entropy parameters given by a coarse-grained RNA folding model (the Vfold model) for the loops. To predict the three-dimensional structure, the server assembles the motif scaffolds using structure templates extracted from the known PDB structures and refines the structure using all-atom energy minimization.ConclusionsThe Vfold-based web server provides a user friendly tool for the prediction of RNA structure and stability. The web server and the source codes are freely accessible for public use at "http://rna.physics.missouri.edu".

SimRNAweb: a web server for RNA 3D structure modeling with optional restraints.

Project description:RNA function in many biological processes depends on the formation of three-dimensional (3D) structures. However, RNA structure is difficult to determine experimentally, which has prompted the development of predictive computational methods. Here, we introduce a user-friendly online interface for modeling RNA 3D structures using SimRNA, a method that uses a coarse-grained representation of RNA molecules, utilizes the Monte Carlo method to sample the conformational space, and relies on a statistical potential to describe the interactions in the folding process. SimRNAweb makes SimRNA accessible to users who do not normally use high performance computational facilities or are unfamiliar with using the command line tools. The simplest input consists of an RNA sequence to fold RNA de novo. Alternatively, a user can provide a 3D structure in the PDB format, for instance a preliminary model built with some other technique, to jump-start the modeling close to the expected final outcome. The user can optionally provide secondary structure and distance restraints, and can freeze a part of the starting 3D structure. SimRNAweb can be used to model single RNA sequences and RNA-RNA complexes (up to 52 chains). The webserver is available at http://genesilico.pl/SimRNAweb.

VfoldLA: A web server for loop assembly-based prediction of putative 3D RNA structures.

Project description:RNA three-dimensional (3D) structures are critical for RNA cellular functions. However, structure prediction for large and complex RNAs remains a challenge, which hampers our understanding of RNA structure-function relationship. We here report a new web server, the VfoldLA server (http://rna.physics.missouri.edu/vfoldLA), for the prediction of RNA 3D structures from nucleotide sequences and base-pair information (2D structure). This server is based on the recently developed VfoldLA, a model that classifies the single-stranded loops (junctions) into four different types and according to the loop-helix connections, assembles RNA 3D structures from the loop/junction templates. The VfoldLA web server provides a user-friendly online interface for a fully automated prediction of putative 3D RNA structures using VfoldLA. With a single-RNA or RNA-RNA complex sequence and 2D structure as input, the server generates structure(s) with the JSmol visualization along with a downloadable PDB file. The output result may serve as useful scaffolds for future structure refinement studies.

SETTER: web server for RNA structure comparison.

Project description:The recent discoveries of regulatory non-coding RNAs changed our view of RNA as a simple information transfer molecule. Understanding the architecture and function of active RNA molecules requires methods for comparing and analyzing their 3D structures. While structural alignment of short RNAs is achievable in a reasonable amount of time, large structures represent much bigger challenge. Here, we present the SETTER web server for the RNA structure pairwise comparison utilizing the SETTER (SEcondary sTructure-based TERtiary Structure Similarity Algorithm) algorithm. The SETTER method divides an RNA structure into the set of non-overlapping structural elements called generalized secondary structure units (GSSUs). The SETTER algorithm scales as O(n(2)) with the size of a GSSUs and as O(n) with the number of GSSUs in the structure. This scaling gives SETTER its high speed as the average size of the GSSU remains constant irrespective of the size of the structure. However, the favorable speed of the algorithm does not compromise its accuracy. The SETTER web server together with the stand-alone implementation of the SETTER algorithm are freely accessible at http://siret.cz/setter.

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.
