A web-based three-dimensional protein retrieval system by matching visual similarity

Bioinformatics. 2005 Jul 1;21(13):3056-7. doi: 10.1093/bioinformatics/bti458. Epub 2005 Apr 19.

Abstract

A web-based three-dimensional (3D) protein retrieval system is available for protein structure data including all PDB and FSSP dataset. In this system, we use a visual-based matching method to compare the protein structure from multiple viewpoints. It takes less than three seconds for each query with 90% accuracy on an average.
