JVirGel -- calculation of virtual two-dimensional protein gels

What you can do:
Simulate and analyze proteomics data using virtual two-dimensional (2D) protein gels.
Highlights:
  • JVirGel is collection of tools for the simulation and analysis of proteomics data. The software creates and visualizes virtual two-dimensional (2D) protein gels based on the migration behavior of proteins in dependence of their theoretical molecular weights in combination with their calculated isoelectric points.
  • The calculated pattern of protein spots helps to identify unknown proteins and to localize known proteins during experimental proteomics approaches.
  • Differences between the experimentally observed and the calculated migration behavior of certain proteins provide first indications for potential protein modification events.
  • When possible, the protein spots are directly linked via a mouse click to the public databases SWISS-PROT and PRODORIC. Additional tools for the serial calculation and visualization of specific protein properties like pH dependent charge curves and hydrophobicity profiles are also provided.
  • These values are helpful for the rational establishment of protein purification procedures.
