ProTarget -- automatic prediction of protein structure novelty

What you can do:
Predict novel protein folding using a Web-based tool.
Highlights:
  • ProTarget is a Web-based tool for the automatic prediction of fold novelty.
  • It takes as input an amino acid sequence. Regions of this sequence that exhibit high similarity to an existing PDB sequence are removed, leaving one or more subsequences. Each of these subsequences is then analyzed against a clustering of the protein space to determine the likelihood of its representing a new structural superfamily.
  • The output of ProTarget is a graphical visualization of the protein of interest together with the likelihood that a protein sequence represents a novel structural superfamily.
  • ProTarget is updated regularly and currently covers over 160000 protein sequences from the SwissProt and PDB databases.
