MolProbity: all-atom contacts and structure validation for proteins and nucleic acids

TL;DR: MolProbity is a general-purpose web server offering quality validation for 3D structures of proteins, nucleic acids and complexes that provides detailed all-atom contact analysis of any steric problems within the molecules as well as updated dihedral-angle diagnostics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Predicting protein structures with a multiplayer online game

TL;DR: Foldit is described, a multiplayer online game that engages non-scientists in solving hard prediction problems and shows that top-ranked Foldit players excel at solving challenging structure refinement problems in which substantial backbone rearrangements are necessary to achieve the burial of hydrophobic residues.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of conformational sampling in computing mutation-induced changes in protein structure and stability.

TL;DR: This work explores the performance of protocols which sample an increasing diversity of conformations and finds that surprisingly similar performances in predicting changes in stability are achieved using protocols that involve very different amounts of conformational sampling, provided that theresolution of the force field is matched to the resolution of the sampling method.
