Bioinformatic and computational structural biology tools

Linking structural data with genomics and proteomics databases

Description
Often structural biology projects require to link structural data with genomics and proteomics databases. Scientists are supported with the annotations of 3D protein structures at residue level using proteomic and genomic sources including UniProt and ENSEMBL databases, diseases and genomic variants, protein domain families, disordered regions, short linear motifs and immunological epitopes.

Support for preparation and calculation of 3D macromolecular maps

Description
The preparation and calculation of 3D macromolecular maps requires specialized software. Scientists can be supported in this work by full image processing of EM movies using the SCIPION package including particle picking, classification, volume reconstruction and atomic structure determination.

Support in EM data acquisition planning

Description
The acquisition of high-quality data depends on careful planning prior to the actual experiment. Expert advice can be provided by the analysis of EM grids and the acquisition of EM movies through a FEI Talos Artica and a Falcon II direct detector.
