Explore protein structures and sequences quickly and easily
Have you ever come across an unfamiliar protein in your BLAST results? With the newly added ‘AlphaFold Structure’ link (Figure 1), you can now explore its structure as predicted by AlphaFold in iCn3D. The iCn3D Structure Viewer is not only a web-based 3D viewer, but also a structure analysis tool with interactive displays of 3D structure, 2D topology, 1D sequence and annotation.
Features & Benefits
- Upload AlphaFold structures to iCn3D directly
- Use the structure search feature to find structures of interest
- Understand important features of the structures, such as disease-associated variations (ClinVar), genetic variations (dbSNP), or chemical modifications (PTM)
- Identify similarities and differences between AlphaFold predictions and experimentally determined structure
- Gain insights into the structural characteristics and properties of the molecules
- Use iCn3D in different platforms (Jupyter Notebook, Virtual Reality, and Augmented Reality)
- Easily integrate iCn3D using scripted workflows (node.js, python) to analyze large sets of structures
