PDB2PQR: an automated pipeline for the setup of Poisson–Boltzmann electrostatics calculations

TL;DR: The PDB2PQR web service is intended to facilitate the setup and execution of Electrostatics calculations for both experts and non-experts and thereby broaden the accessibility to the biological community of continuum electrostatics analyses of biomolecular systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

PDB2PQR: expanding and upgrading automated preparation of biomolecular structures for molecular simulations

TL;DR: The significantly expanded PDB2PQR is reported that includes robust standalone command line support, improved pKa estimation via the PROPKA framework, ligand parameterization via PEOE_PB charge methodology, expanded set of force fields and easily incorporated user-defined parameters via XML input files, and improvement of atom addition and optimization code.
Journal ArticleDOI

Predicting changes in the stability of proteins and protein complexes: a study of more than 1000 mutations.

TL;DR: The present energy function uses a minimum of computational resources and can therefore easily be used in protein design algorithms, and in the field of protein structure and folding pathways prediction where one requires a fast and accurate energy function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prolyl hydroxylase-1 negatively regulates IκB kinase-β, giving insight into hypoxia-induced NFκB activity

TL;DR: It is hypothesized that hypoxia releases repression of NFκB activity through decreased PHD-dependent hydroxylation of IKKβ, an event that may contribute to tumor development and progression through amplification of tumorigenic signaling pathways.
