PhiSiCal (𝜙𝛹𝜒al)

PhiSiCal (𝜙𝛹𝜒al) mixture models are Minimum Message Length (MML) inferred statistical models exlaining the joint distribution of backbone (𝜙,𝛹) and sidechain (𝜒) dihedral angles of individual amino acids, supporting accurate conformation sampling and many other applications to protein studies.

Proçodic

Proçodic is an interactive web server capturing the dictionary of topologically conserved secondary structures (a.k.a concepts), that forms the architectural 'basis set' of the observered universe of protein structures.

MMLigner

MMLigner is a command-line program and webserver to infer pairwise protein 3D structure alignments and also identify closely-competing alignments. It uses the MML-based statistical inference framework supported by probability distributions on 3D spheres.

seq(uence)
MMLigner

seqMMLigner is a command line program to infer alignments between amino acid SEQUENCES under the MML framework.

Dinithi won the 2019 Ian Lawson Van Toch Memorial Award (Outstanding Student Paper) for this work.

SST

SST is a web server to assign secondary structure to protein coordinate data using the Bayesian method of Minimum Message Length inference. Identifies helices, turns of various types, and strands of a sheet.

MUSTANG

MUSTANG is a command line program to produce multiple structural alignments given the three-dimensional coordinates of proteins.

MMLSUM

MMLSUM is a 'time' parameterised Stochastic Markov model of amino acid substitutions, inferred using MML along with its companion 'time' parameterised Dirichlet distributions modelling the alignment three-state machine. Together they form a complete set of models for amino acid substitutions, insertions and deletions.

Super

Super is a web server and a program to rapidly screen the entire (up-to-date) PDB and identify similar oligopeptide fragments. The method mathematically guarantees to find all superposable fragments for a given query that fits within a user-prescribed threshold of root-mean-squared deviation (RMSD).

Superpose
3Dlib

Superpose3D is a C++ library that supports least-squares superposition of 3D vector sets. This library implements sufficient statistics for this superposition problem, and allows updating existing superpositions (under vector set addition and symmetric difference) in constant time.

EAD

EAD (Expected Alignment Distance) builds on the seqMMLigner framework to estimate the (mathematically strict) expectation of inter-alignment distance between the relationships decipherable from 1D amino acid sequence information and 3D structure information.
