This book describes more than 60 web-accessible computational tools
for protein analysis and is totally practical, with detailed
explanations on how to use these tools and interpret their results
and minimal mentions to their theoretical basis (only when that is
required for making a better use of them). It covers a wide range
of tools for dealing with different aspects of proteins, from their
sequences, to their three-dimensional structures, and the
biological networks they are immersed in. The selection of tools is
based on the experience of the authors that lead a protein
bioinformatics facility in a large research centre, with the
additional constraint that the tools should be accessible through
standard web browsers without requiring the local installation of
specific software, command-line tools, etc. The web tools covered
include those aimed to retrieve protein information, look for
similar proteins, generate pair-wise and multiple sequence
alignments of protein sequences, work with protein domains and
motifs, study the phylogeny of a family of proteins, retrieve,
manipulate and visualize protein three-dimensional structures,
predict protein structural features as well as whole
three-dimensional structures, extract biological information from
protein structures, summarize large protein sets, study protein
interaction and metabolic networks, etc. The book is associated to
a dynamic web site that will reflect changes in the web addresses
of the tools, updates of these, etc. It also contains QR codes that
can be scanned with any device to direct its browser to the tool
web site. This monograph will be most valuable for researchers in
experimental labs without specific knowledge on bioinformatics or
computing.
