The ARTS web server for aligning RNA tertiary structures

URL:
http://bioinfo3d.cs.tau.ac.il/ARTS/
What you can do:
Conduct structural comparison of RNAs and detect common substructures.
Highlights:
  • The ARTS web server aligns tertiary structures of nucleic acids (both RNA and DNA).
  • ARTS receives a pair of 3D nucleic acid structures and searches for a priori unknown common substructures.
  • The identified common substructures can be large global folds with hundreds and even thousands of nucleotides as well as small local motifs with at least two successive base pairs.
  • The method is highly efficient and has been used to conduct an all-against-all comparison of all the RNA structures in the Protein Data Bank.
