The program PARE calculates the change in rate of association (kon) of mutant protein-protein interaction complexes from the change in the Debye Huckel energy of interaction between proteins using transition state theory. As input, the pdb coordinates of the complex are required. For calculating absolute rates, one has to add the value of kon of the wild-type complex as well.

Prof. Eytan Domany
Gaddy Getz, M.Sc.

The F2CS server provides access to the software, F2CS2.00, that implements an automated prediction server of SCOP's class and fold classifications and CATH's class, architechture and topology classifications for any protein that appears in the latest version of the FSSP database (Getz et al., Proteins (2002) 46, 405). The prediction is based on the FSSP Z-scores.
Coupled Two-Way Clustering server (CTWC)

NUMODs motifs finder
Einat Sitbon, M.Sc.

NUMODs (nuclease-associated modular DNA-binding domains) can be found, in addition to a service that locates NUMODs on a given protein/DNA sequence. NUMODs are new types of short conserved sequence domains in homing endonucleases and related proteins. These domains are modular, appearing in various combinations. One domain includes a motif known by structure as a novel sequence-specific DNA-binding helix. Sequence similarity shows two other domains to be new types of HTH DNA-binding domains. We term the new domains nuclease-associated modular DNA-binding domains (NUMODs).
SARIG
Dr. Shmuel Pietrokovski
Arye Shemesh, B.Sc.
Dr. Gil Amitai
Einat Sitbon, M.Sc.

Enables the identification of active sites in enzymes based on the analysis of protein structures as networks of interactions between amino acids. The network property of closeness describes the average shortest path of each residue in a given protein structure from all other residues within the structure. The combination of high closeness values and relative surface area of each residue enables to predict its likelihood of being an active site residue. The optimal values of closeness and relative surface area were derived from a thorough examination of 178 protein structures with well annotated active sites (Bartlett GJ. et al. J Mol Biol. 2002 Nov 15;324(1):105-21).
