MolSurfer -- a macromolecular interface navigator
What you can do:
Analyze the structures and physico-chemical properties of macromolecular interfaces.
Highlights:
- MolSurfer has been designed to assist the analysis of the structures and physico-chemical properties of macromolecular interfaces.
- MolSurfer provides a coupled display of two-dimensional (2D) maps of the interfaces generated with the ADS software and a three-dimensional (3D) view of the macromolecular structure in the Java PDB viewer, WebMol.
- The interfaces are analytically defined and properties such as electrostatic potential or hydrophobicity are projected on to them.
- A new application, described here, is the visualization of 75 interfaces in structures of proteinx96DNA and proteinx96RNA complexes.
- Another new feature is that the MolSurfer web server is now able to compute and map Poissonx96Boltzmann electrostatic potentials of macromolecules onto interfaces.
