Abstract

An interactive web-based display tool, Biomolecules Segment Display Device (BSDD), has been developed to search for and isualize a user-defined motif or fragment among the protein structures available in the Protein Data Bank (PDB). In addition, the tool orks for the structures available in a selected subset of non-homologous protein structures (25% and 90% sequence identity) . The graphics package RASMOL has been incorporated as an interface to visualize the three-dimensional structure of the user-defined motif. In addition, the software can be used to extract the atomic coordinates of the required fragment and save them to the client system. The atomic coordinates are updated every week fromthe RCSB–PDB server, and hence the results produced by BSDD are up to date at any given time. The software BSDD is available over the World Wide Web at http://iris.physics.iisc.ernet.in/bsdd or http:// 144.16.71.2/bsdd.
