POSE - Protein Optimization Steering
Environment
POSE is an interactive graphical environment for the design, modeling,
and optimization of protein structures. It permits manipulation of
protein structures with pinpoint control using concepts from robotics.
Its features include: 1. automatic generation of 3D structures from
sequence, 2. manipulation of parts of a protein with respect to its
other parts without breaking its chemical structure, 3. real-time
energy visualization to facilitate comparison and analysis of
structures, 4. calculation of low-energy configurations by applying
local optimizations, 5. automatic creation of a variety of low-energy
beta-sheet configurations according to high-probability beta topologies
and beta pairings.
