Summary : This gives information on the number of native and modelled disulphides and distribution of grades.
Disulphide Details : Native and Modelled disulphide details in the form of table.
Output features | Description |
---|---|
Type | gives information on whether it is a modelled or a native disulphide bridge. Annotated and unannotated SS bonds: where both the residues are cysteines. If marked in the PDB file, blue colour. If predicted by MODIP then native is represented in red colour. |
Residue i | gives information on the start residue name, chain ID and residue number of the SS bond. |
Residue j | gives information on the end residue name, chain ID and residue number of the SS bond. |
Grade | grade distribution of modelled and native disulphides. |
Retrive PDB | gives PDB file of the substructural segment with residue i and j mutated to cysteines ( Example: for Modelled SS bond, mutant PDB file is available with residue no 5 to 8 mutated to Cysteines ). User can view the segment in Jsmol and PDB file is available for download. |
Stereochemistry | hyperlink to view the stereochemical parameters of SS bond. |
This computer modelling program requires N,C alpha ,C beta coordinates as input and considers all possible residue pairs and calculate the C(alpha)-C(alpha), C(beta)-C(beta) distances. It selects the residue pair with C(alpha)-C(alpha) distance of less than or equal to 6.5 Angstrom and C(beta)-C(beta) distance of less than or equal to 4.5 Angstrom and geometricaly fixes the sulphur atom and grades them based on the stereochemical quality.
