TLDR
The quality scores of a protein are displayed in the context of all known protein structures and problematic parts of a structure are shown and highlighted in a 3D molecule viewer in the ProSA-web service.Abstract:
A major problem in structural biology is the recognition of errors in experimental and theoretical models of protein structures. The ProSA program (Protein Structure Analysis) is an established tool which has a large user base and is frequently employed in the refinement and validation of experimental protein structures and in structure prediction and modeling. The analysis of protein structures is generally a difficult and cumbersome exercise. The new service presented here is a straightforward and easy to use extension of the classic ProSA program which exploits the advantages of interactive web-based applications for the display of scores and energy plots that highlight potential problems spotted in protein structures. In particular, the quality scores of a protein are displayed in the context of all known protein structures and problematic parts of a structure are shown and highlighted in a 3D molecule viewer. The service specifically addresses the needs encountered in the validation of protein structures obtained from X-ray analysis, NMR spectroscopy and theoretical calculations.

A novel mutation of the high-temperature requirement A serine peptidase 1 (HTRA1) gene in a Chinese family with cerebral autosomal recessive arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CARASIL).
TL;DR: Three-dimensional models showed that the change from proline to leucine could attenuate the hydrogen bond between S284 and S287 residues, which might affect function of serine protease HTRA1.

In-silico screening and experimental validation reveal L-Adrenaline as anti-biofilm molecule against biofilm-associated protein (Bap) producing Acinetobacter baumannii.
TL;DR: The finding suggests that L-Adrenaline can be developed to inhibit biofilm formation by carbapenem resistant strain of Acinetobacter baumannii.

TL;DR: The outer membrane toxin producing proteins found exclusively in the toxigenic B. fragilis were systematically ventured through the in-silico approaches to predict a multi-epitopic chimeric vaccine construct and proved to be exclusive.

TL;DR: It is shown that ES1 impairs Ca2+ homeostasis by enhancing theCa2+ leakage from mammalian ER by interacting with the lateral gate of Sec61α, ES1 and ES24 likely capture Sec61 complexes in a Ca2-permeable, open state, in which Sec61 complex allow Ca2+.

Identification of lead molecules against potential drug target protein MAPK4 from L. donovani: An in-silico approach using docking, molecular dynamics and binding free energy calculation.
TL;DR: The current study reveals the identification of natural inhibitors of L. donovani mitogen-activated protein kinase-4 (LdMPK4) and identifies two compounds Genistein (GEN) and Chrysin (CHY), which can be considered as lead molecules for targeting Ld MPK4 enzyme and could emerge as potential LdMPk4 inhibitors.

Recognition of errors in three‐dimensional structures of proteins
TL;DR: Techniques based on knowledge based mean fields which can be used to judge the quality of protein folds are presented, used to identify misfolded structures as well as faulty parts of structural models.

Structure of a bacterial multidrug ABC transporter
TL;DR: The observed, outward-facing conformation reflects the ATP-bound state, with the two nucleotide-binding domains in close contact and the two transmembrane domains forming a central cavity—presumably the drug translocation pathway—that is shielded from the inner leaflet of the lipid bilayer and from the cytoplasm, but exposed to the outer leaflet and the extracellular space.

TL;DR: A prototype of a new approach to the folding problem of polypeptide chains based on the analysis of known protein structures, which derives the energy potentials for the atomic interactions of all amino acid residue pairs as a function of the distance between the involved atoms is presented.

TL;DR: The structure of MsbA can serve as a model for the MDR-ABC transporters that confer multidrug resistance to cancer cells and infectious microorganisms.
