    BACKGROUND

    Predicting the effect of a mutation on the structure and function of a protein is not just for researchers with super-computer facilities. Thanks to public cloud computing options, anyone with basic molecular biology background can setup and run compute intensive computational modeling and dynamics experiments.

    OBJECTIVES

    Participants will use popular open source tools and techniques necessary for conducting successful molecular modeling and dynamics experiments in the cloud.

    Hands-on Skills/Tools Taught:
    • Ab initio protein structure modeling: QUARK / Rosetta
    • Remote homology detection: HHpred
    • Fragment-based protein structure modeling: Phyre2
    • Homology-based protein structure modeling: I-TASSER, MODELLER
    • Protein structure quality analysis: PROCHECK, WHAT_IF, Verify3D, PDB-REDO
    • Protein structure refinement: ModRefiner, ModLoop, Ramachandran plot
    • Macromolecular visualization: VMD, USCF Chimera
    • Molecular dynamics: NAMD
