Interactive motif and fold recognition in protein structures (original) (raw)

computer programs

Two previously developed software tools for pattern recognition in protein structures at the level of the fold (DEJAVU) and at the level of assemblies of individual residues (SPASM) have been improved in order to increase their specificity significantly. In addition, web-servers have been developed for both tools thereby greatly enhancing the ease with which even non-experts can employ them.
