STARS: statistics on inter-atomic distances and torsion angles in protein secondary structures
1Department of Biological Sciences and Department of Chemistry, National University of Singapore, 14 Science Drive 4, Singapore 117543.
Unlabelled:
A graphics package has been developed for performing statistics on interatomic distances and torsion angles in protein secondary structures (STARS) from a protein crystal structure database. It allows one to obtain both the graphical view and the text format of distributions of the distances and angles for atoms located in 10 types of protein secondary structures. STARS will facilitate assignment of ambiguous NOESY peaks, structure determination by nuclear magnetic resonance, structure validation and comparison of protein folds.
Availability:
All data, documents and execute files are freely downloadable at http://stars.zhengyuhome.com. The software works appropriately on Windows system, without any compilation or installation.
