The MIGenAS integrated bioinformatics toolkit for web-based sequence analysis.

Abstract:

:We describe a versatile and extensible integrated bioinformatics toolkit for the analysis of biological sequences over the Internet. The web portal offers convenient interactive access to a growing pool of chainable bioinformatics software tools and databases that are centrally installed and maintained by the RZG. Currently, supported tasks comprise sequence similarity searches in public or user-supplied databases, computation and validation of multiple sequence alignments, phylogenetic analysis and protein-structure prediction. Individual tools can be seamlessly chained into pipelines allowing the user to conveniently process complex workflows without the necessity to take care of any format conversions or tedious parsing of intermediate results. The toolkit is part of the Max-Planck Integrated Gene Analysis System (MIGenAS) of the Max Planck Society available at www.migenas.org (click 'Start Toolkit').

  • Polylysine-coated mica can be used to observe systematic changes in the supercoiled DNA conformation by scanning force microscopy in solution.

    abstract::The conformations of supercoiled (sc) DNA and linear DNA bound to polylysine (PL)-coated mica were investigated by scanning force microscopy (SFM) in solution. From the polymer statistical analysis of linear DNA, we could distinguish between re-arrangements or trapping of the DNA on the surface. Conditions of re-arran...
