PALSSE 20090521 – Predictive Assignment of Linear Secondary Structure Elements

PALSSE 20090521

:: DESCRIPTION

PALSSE (Predictive Assignment of Linear Secondary Structure Elements) is a software that delineates secondary structure elements (SSEs) from protein Cα coordinates and specifically addresses the requirements of vector-based protein similarity searches. Our program identifies two types of secondary structures: helix and β-strand, typically those that can be well approximated by vectors. In contrast to traditional secondary structure algorithms, which identify a secondary structure state for every residue in a protein chain, our program attributes residues to linear SSEs. Consecutive elements may overlap, thus allowing residues located at the overlapping region to have more than one secondary structure type.

RNACluster 1.0 – RNA Secondary Structure Comparison and Clustering

RNACluster 1.0

:: DESCRIPTION

RNACluster is an integrated computational software which implements 6 common structure distances to measure the (dis)similarity of RNA secondary structures including base pair distance, mountain distance, morphological distance, tree edit distance, string edit distance and our in-house structure matrix distance, and one effective cluster approach for the ensemble clustering using a minimum spanning tree (MST) based algorithm. RNACluster can be used to study the characteristics of RNA secondary structures, RNA structure conformational switches, RNA conformational energy landscapes and RNA secondary structure prediction based on the clustering of structure ensemble.

RNA-DV 1.0 – Design & Visualization Tool for RNA Secondary Structure

RNA-DV 1.0

:: DESCRIPTION

RNA-DV (RNA Design & Visualization) is a flexible and powerful tool targeted at visualization and modification of RNA secondary structure. Compare to existing software applications, RNA-DV set itself apart by not only providing an editing and visualization interface but also integrates thermodynamic energies for the current structure design. RNA-DV aims at providing an easy-to-use GUI for visualizing and designing RNA secondary structures. It allows users to interact directly with the RNA structure and perform operations such as changing primary sequence content and connect/disconnect nucleotide bonds. It also integrates thermodynamic energy calculations including four major energy models. RNA-DV recognizes three input formats including CT, RNAML and dot bracket (dp).
