miRNAminer is a web-based tool used for homologous miRNA gene search in several species. Given a search query, candidate homologs are identified using BLAST search and then tested for their known miRNA properties, such as secondary structure, energy, alignment and conservation, in order to assess their fidelity.
HHalign-Kbest is useful to automatically obtain optimized alignments and models in case of low sequence identity (<35%) between a query and a template protein. It can generate k suboptimal (e.g. top-k scoring) alignments rather than only the optimal one which may contain small to large errors.
AlignNemo (Aligning Network Modules), is a novel algorithm that, given the networks of two organisms, uncovers subnetworks of proteins that related in sequence and topology. The subnetworks have a general topology and need not to correspond to specific interaction patterns thus more closely fit the models of functional complexes proposed in the literature.
SANS is a program for searching protein sequence databases. It is as sensitive as BLAST when sequence identity is 50-100 %. SANS is faster than BLAST in batch mode. For example, a bacterial genome can be compared to Uniprot in one hour compared to 100 hours by BLAST.
SANSparallel takes a protein sequence as input and returns a set of similar sequences from Uniprot databases.
DAPPLE is a homology-based method for predicting phosphorylation sites in an organism of interest. It uses BLAST searches of experimentally-determined phosphorylation sites in one organism (or several organisms) to predict phosphorylation sites in an organism of interest. It outputs a table containing information helpful for choosing phosphorylation sites that are of interest to you, such as the number of sequence differences between the query site and the hit site, the location of the query site and the hit site in their respective intact proteins, and whether the corresponding intact proteins are reciprocal BLAST hits (and thus predicted orthologues).
SWISS-MODEL is a fully automated protein structure homology-modelling server, accessible via the ExPASy web server, or from the program DeepView (Swiss Pdb-Viewer).
