Abstract The Protein Data Bank (PDB) is the world-wide repository of macromolecular
structure information. We present a series of databases that run parallel to the PDB. Each …

PISCES is a public server for culling sets of protein sequences from the Protein Data Bank
(PDB) by sequence identity and structural quality criteria. PISCES can provide lists culled …

PISCES is a database server for producing lists of sequences from the Protein Data Bank
(PDB) using a number of entry-and chain-specific criteria and mutual sequence identity. Our …

Three-dimensional structures of proteins are the support of their biological functions. Their
folds are stabilized by contacts between residues. Inner protein contacts are generally …

The mistranslation-induced protein misfolding hypothesis predicts that selection should
prefer high-fidelity codons at sites at which translation errors are structurally disruptive and …

Protein structures are valuable tools for understanding protein function. However, protein
dynamics is also considered a key element in protein function. Therefore, in addition to …

Three‐dimensional protein structures can be described with a library of 3D fragments that
define a structural alphabet. We have previously proposed such an alphabet, composed of …

Protein structures are necessary for understanding protein function at a molecular level.
Dynamics and flexibility of protein structures are also key elements of protein function. So …

Information about local protein sequence motifs is very important to the analysis of
biologically significant conserved regions of protein sequences. These conserved regions …

Protein sequence world is considerably larger than structure world. In consequence,
numerous non-related sequences may adopt similar 3D folds and different kinds of amino …
