STRAP: Sequence features in 3D
Three Adobe flash animations explain how sequence features such as phosphorylated amino acids or active site residues are shown in 3D.
- Dragging sequence features to 3d: (1 MByte, 3 min) This animation shows how sequence features or other residue selections can be selected by Ctrl-left-click and moved to a homologous protein structure using Drag-and-Drop.
- Rubber band selection:
(0.1 MByte, 1 min) When there are dozens or hundreds of
residue selections, it would be tedious to select one after
the other using the above method with Ctrl-left-click. This
animation shows, how many sequence features can be selected by
opening a rectangular region with the mouse.
- Browsable tree: (0.25
MByte, 1 min) This animation shows yet another method to
select many sequence features: Using the browsable tree.
- Spice (0.2 MByte, 1 min) This animation shows how different views can be opened from STRAP: Spice.
The Example in the animation can be loaded with the following Web-link:
