NetCSSP -- Neural networks for calculating Contact-dependent Secondary Structure Propensity
What you can do:
Use to detect non-native secondary structure propensities in protein sequences.
Highlights:
- NetCSSP implements the latest version of the CSSP algorithm and provides a Flash chart-based graphic interface that enables an interactive calculation of CSSP values for any user-selected regions in a given protein sequence.
- This feature also can quantitatively estimate the mutational effect on changes in native or non-native secondary structural propensities in local sequences.
- This web tool provides precalculated non-native secondary structure propensities for over 1,400,000 fragments that are seven-residues long, collected from PDB structures.
- They are searchable for chameleon subsequences that can serve as the core of amyloid fibril formation.
Keywords:
- amyloid fibril formation
- non-native secondary structure prediction
- protein secondary structure
