skm

Web application and service for visualizing small- to medium-scale models of gene regulatory networks. It automatically lays out either an unweighted or weighted network graph based on an Excel input spreadsheet containing an adjacency matrix where regulators are named in the columns and target genes in the rows. It is best-suited for visualizing networks of fewer than 35 nodes and 70 edges and has general applicability.

martini deals with the low power inherent to GWAS studies by using prior knowledge represented as a network. SNPs are the vertices of the network, and the edges represent biological relationships between them (genomic adjacency, belonging to the same gene, physical interaction between protein products). The network is scanned using SConES, which looks for groups of SNPs maximally associated with the phenotype, that form a close subnetwork.

METALizer predicts the coordination geometry of metal ions in metalloproteins. Users can compare potential coordination geometries to those found in the examined structure. The predicted coordination geometries and the observed metal interaction distances can be interactively compared to statistics calculated based on the PDB.

CompuCell3D is a multiscale multicellular virtual tissue modeling and simulation environment. CompuCell3D is written in C++ and provides Python bindings for model and simulation development in Python.

PoseView automatically generates 2D diagrams of protein-ligand complexes, focusing on the interactions between protein and ligand. Interactions between molecules are estimated by an underlying interaction mode that relies on atom types and simple geometric criteria. It adheres to the conventions of chemical structure diagram generation. The quality of the resulting diagrams is comparable to manually drawn examples from books and scientific publications.

WarPP predicts the position and orientation of water molecules in small-molecule binding sites. It places and scores water molecules in binding sites of crystallographic structures based on EDIAscorer results and interaction geometries as known from experimentally solved protein structures. WarPP was validated on a high-quality set of 1,500 protein-ligand complexes, containing 20,000 crystallographically observed water molecules. It is sufficiently fast for high-throughput analyses. It correctly places water molecules in approx. 80% of the cases. Users can export the predictions as PDB files for, e.g., molecular docking with JAMDA.
