Serving the Scientific Community
The RPI-Wadsworth Bioinformatics Center offers some of its reasearch
software to the entire scientific and medical community nation wide
and world wide through its bioinformatics web server. In addition,
other useful, more traditional applications programmed by RPI students
are offered. The web server is currently a cluster of 36 dual processor
Intel based computers running Red Hat Linux. The current equipment
was donated by IBM in an SUR (Shared University Research) grant to
Michael Zuker, PI.
Applications
Bayesian - algorithms for macromolecular
structure analysis and inference technology for molecular and structural
biology
I-sites - a new method for predicting
the local structure of a protein from its amino acid sequence
RNA & DNA Folding - algorithms and thermodynamics
for nucleic acid secondary structure, hybridization and melting predictions.
Nucleic Acid Hybridization & Melting
Sfold - statistical algorithms
and tools for RNA secondary structure and target accessibility prediction,
and rational design of RNA-targeting nucleic acids.
