ProteinsPlus: Protein Structure Analysis for Everyone
1 September 2017
ProteinsPlus is a web service established at the ZBH in 2016 and now part of denbi - the German Network for Bioinformatics Infrastructure. The web server is the first of its kind supporting early preprocessing and selection steps for protein structures from the Protein Data Bank (PDB). ProteinsPlus has its focus on protein-ligand interactions. It supports (among others) the correct assignment of hydrogen atoms and tautomeric states, a first quality check via an automated electron density comparision, the detection and druggability estimation of binding sites and the fully automated construction of protein structure ensembles.
ProteinsPlus is described in more detail in a recent open-access publication in Nucleic Acid Research.
