An interactive internet computing server,RPMS(Ramachandran plot for multiple structures) has been developed to visualize the Ramachandran angles of several highly homologous protein structures in a single plot. Options are provided for users to locate the amino acid residues in various regions of the plot. To perform the above, users need to enter the Protein Data Bank (PDB) identification codes. In addition, users can upload the atomic coordinates from the local machine. A Java graphics interface has been deployed and the server has been interfaced with a locally maintained PDB anonymous FTP

Abstract:
The Ramachandran plot is important to structural biology as it describes a peptide backbone in the context of its dominant degrees of freedom—the backbone dihedral angles φ and ψ (Ramachandran, Ramakrishnan & Sasisekharan, 1963). Since its introduction, the Ramachandran plot has been a crucial tool to characterize protein backbone features. However, the conformation or twist of a backbone as a function of φ and ψ has not been completely described for both cis and trans backbones. Additionally, little intuitive understanding is available about a peptide’s conformation simply from knowing th

Abstract:
AbstractThe Ramachandran plot is among the most central concepts in structural biology, seen in publications and textbooks alike. However, with the increasing numbers of known protein structures and greater accuracy of ultra-high resolution protein structures, we are still learning more about the basic principles of protein structure. Here, we use high-fidelity conformational information to explore novel ways, such as geo-style and wrapped Ramachandran plots, to convey some of the basic aspects of the Ramachandran plot and of protein conformation. We point out the pressing need for a standard

Abstract:
The definition of the structural basis of the conformational preferences of the genetically encoded amino acid residues is an important yet unresolved issue of structural biology. In order to gain insights into this intricate topic, we here determined and compared the amino acid propensity scales for different (φ, ψ) regions of the Ramachandran plot and for different secondary structure elements. These propensities were calculated using the Chou–Fasman approach on a database of non-redundant protein chains retrieved from the Protein Data Bank. Similarities between propensity scales were evalua

Abstract:
A protein backbone has two degrees of conformational freedom per residue, described by its φ,ψ-angles. Accordingly, the energy landscape of a blocked peptide unit can be mapped in two dimensions, as shown by Ramachandran, Sasisekharan, and Ramakrishnan almost half a century ago. With atoms approximated as hard spheres, the eponymous Ramachandran plot demonstrated that steric clashes alone eliminate ¾ of φ,ψ-space, a result that has guided all subsequent work. Here, we show that adding hydrogen-bonding constraints to these steric criteria eliminates another substantial region of φ,ψ-space for a

A mutated variant D614G, showing more virulence and transmission, was studied for forecasting the emergence of more virulent and pathogenic viral strains. This study focuses on structure modeling and validation. Characterization of proteins homologous to wild spike protein was done, and homology models of the mutated variant were modeled using these proteins. Validation of models was done using Ramachandran plot and ERRAT plot. Molecular dynamics simulation was used to val

Abstract:
Many proteins associated with cell signalling pathways are often targets of post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation, glycosylation, ubiquitination, nitrosylation, methylation, acetylation, lipidation and proteolysis. Such modifications can lead to the induction or disruption of secondary structural elements of the modified protein. This paper describes the structural behaviour of a set of intrinsically disordered peptides (IDP) and ordered structured peptides (OP) modified by phosphorylation on a serine residue. These pentapeptides (IDP and OP) derived from fragmentation of pr

Computational methods were used to investigate both the physical and chemical properties of UDP-glucose 6-dehydrogenase (hUGDH). Secondary structure analysis of the query model was done using the Self-Optimized Prediction method With Alignment (SOPMA), the secondary structure predictions comprise of 40.69% Alpha helixes (Hh), 17.61% Extended strand (Ee), 7.69% Beta turn (Tt) and 34.01% of Random coil (Cc) with aliphatic index of 90.00 and instability index of 33.26 which classify the protein model to be thermally stable irrespective of it environment.

Abstract:
Background: Numerous types of research on malaria were done over a long period of time but there are still some unknowns. However, it is globally known that malaria is caused by the Plasmodium parasite, mainly and most lethally by Plasmodium falciparum. The purpose of this research is to understand the structure and function of three uncharacterized P. falciparum proteins (PF3D7_1468000, PF3D7_1147400, PF3D7_1351100) using bioinformatic methods in hopes to learn more about malaria. Methods: The three uncharacterized P. falciparum proteins were inserted into Phyre2 for knowing the protein homol

Abstract:
Dystrophin is one of the most significant and well-researched cytoskeletal proteins that is prominently expressed in skeletal and cardiac muscles. It is a large 400-kD protein, which is encoded by the largest gene in the human body- DMD gene. A significant decrease in dystrophin levels in muscles results in a gradual and severe skeletal muscular weakening. Lack of dystrophin results in muscular dystrophies such as DMD (Duchenne muscular dystrophy) and BMD (Becker muscular dystrophy. Understanding the dystrophin protein's structure is crucial for developing a cure for the disease. Comprehensive

Abstract:
Histone deacetylase (HDAC) is the key enzyme responsible for epigenetic regulation of an organism. This protein has been involved in transcriptional regulation of many proteins associated with chromatin remodelling. Homologs of histone deacetylase are also found in malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum where it plays major role in regulation of key pathways of parasite. In this study, we determined the three-dimensional structure of histone deacetylase from Plasmodium falciparum (PfHDAC) by using homology modelling tools available at Swiss Modeller server and Modweb.
