Bestsel

BeStSel (Beta Structure Selection) is a novel method for the secondary structure determination and fold recognition from protein circular dichroism spectra.

		Single spectrum analysis and fold recognition
		Secondary structure determination distinguishing parallel beta-sheets and antiparallel beta-sheets of different twists, and fold recognition from the CD spectrum.

Fold recognition
Prediction of fold class, architecture, topology and homology for the provided secondary structure contents.

		Multiple spectra analysis
		Analysis of a series of spectra as a function of temperature, time, ligand concentration, etc.

Secondary structure and beta-sheet decomposition for PDB structures
Secondary structure composition of protein structures deposited in PDB on the basis of the eight structural element decomposed by BeStSel. For comparison, DSSP data and Selcon3 decomposition is also calculated.

Protein fold classification prediction for secondary structure composition given by the user.

The calculation can be initiated if the eight secondary structure components sums up to 100.0 % and the chain length is provided. CATH fold categories [Orengo et al., Structure, 5:1093 (1997)] class, architecture, topology and homology are predicted.
