Abstract

RPBS (Ressource Parisienne en Bioinformatique Structurale) is a resource dedicated primarily to structural bioinformatics. It is the result of a joint effort by several teams to set up an interface that offers original and powerful methods in the field. As an illustration, we focus here on three such methods uniquely available at RPBS: AUTOMAT for sequence databank scanning, YAKUSA for structure databank scanning and WLOOP for homology loop modelling. The RPBS server can be accessed at http://bioserv.rpbs.jussieu.fr/ and the specific services at http://bioserv.rpbs.jussieu.fr/SpecificServices.html.

YAKUSA result pages. Front window: visual listing of synthetic results of the scan of the databank with PDB structure 9rnt. For each entry (one line), SHSPs are coloured according to their probabilities of occurrence. Back window: part of a listing showing the SHSPs between the query (9rnt) and a databank entry (1rtu). Middle window: superimposition in the Jmol applet of the two structures (9rnt: dark red and 1rtu: dark blue) according to their longest SHSP (coloured in pink). The two others SHSPs are coloured in light grey and light blue.
