Protein Subcellular Localization Prediction

Poonam Mahapatra — Thu, 01 Mar 2018 06:20:47 -0600

Assigning subcellular localization to a protein is an important step towards elucidating its interaction partners, function, and potential role(s) in the cellular machinery. Computational tools offer an attractive complement to time-consuming and laborious experimental methods.

Tools for Protein-Protein Docking !

Poonam Mahapatra — Wed, 25 Apr 2018 05:15:53 -0500

Predicting the structure of protein–protein complexes using docking approaches is a difficult problem whose major challenges include identifying correct solutions, and properly dealing with molecular flexibility and conformational changes. Following are the tools to predict the structure of protein–protein complexes:

3D-Dock Suite

Global rigid search: FFTShape complementarity and electrostatics

Re-scoring and clustering. Refinement of interface side-chains

3D-Garden

Global rigid search in ensamble

Shape complementarity and Lennard–Jones potential

Side chain and backbone dihedral refinement

DOT

Global rigid search: FFTShape complementarity, electrostatics and VDWNone

Escher NG

Clustering of conformations

PyDock

RosettaDock

Local rigid search: Monte Carlo with low and high resolution structure representation levels

Different scoring parameters for the different resolutions

ZDOCK

Global rigid search: FFTShape complementarity, desolvation energy, and electrostatics.

Energy minimization and re-scoringFree for academics

Point to note:

The proper treatment of flexibility in protein–protein docking is still an active field of research. You first should analyzed your proteins in order to define their conformational space and then choose the most suitable method for your docking problem.

SRBreak: A Read-Depth and Split-Read Framework to Identify Breakpoints of Different Events Inside Simple Copy-Number Variable Regions

Jit — Tue, 15 May 2018 04:42:11 -0500

SRBreak is a read-depth and split-read package written in R for identifying copy-number variants in next-generation sequencing datasets. Note: SBReak was designed to work for multiple samples. It can work for >= 2 samples, but we suggest that users should use >= 5 samples as in the work tested in our paper.

Smash: An alignment-free method to find and visualise rearrangements between pairs of DNA sequences

Jit — Tue, 26 Apr 2016 12:18:49 -0500

Smash is a completely alignment-free method/tool to find and visualise genomic rearrangements. The detection is based on conditional exclusive compression, namely using a FCM (Markov model), of high context order (typically 20). For visualisation, Smash outputs a SVG image, with an ideogramoutput architecture, where the patterns are represented with several HSV values (only value varies). The method can perform both in small- and large-scale. Nevertheless is more directed to large-scale since that the main aim of the research is to know where the large-scale [chromosomal by chromosome] of several primates was equal/different, having at a glance a map of the entire genomes.

Spines

Jit — Mon, 28 Nov 2016 05:33:26 -0600

Spines is a collection of software tools, developed and used by the Vertebrate Genome Biology Group at the Broad Institute. It provides basic data structures for efficient data manipulation (mostly genomic sequences, alignments, variation etc.), as well as specialized tool sets for various analyses. It also features three sequence alignment packages: Satsuma, a highly parallelized program for high-sensitivity, genome-wide synteny; Papaya, an all-purpose alignment tool for less diverged sequences; and SLAP, a context-sensitive local aligner for diverged sequences with large gaps.

J-Circos

Shruti Paniwala — Fri, 17 Feb 2017 09:06:54 -0600

Circos plot tool (J-Circos) that is an interactive visualization tool that can plot Circos figures, as well as being able to dynamically add data to the figure, and providing information for specific data points using mouse hover display and zoom in/out functions. J-Circos uses the Java computer language to enable it to be used on most operating systems (Windows, MacOS, Linux). Users can input data into J-Circos using flat data formats, as well as from the GUI. J-Circos will enable biologists to better study more complex chromosomal interactions and fusion transcripts that are otherwise difficult to visualize from next-generation sequencing data.
