Task Description

Charting Protein Classes

VisIT

10 min

Users inspect MPSS and need to determine the rough locations of protein classes at the top of CATH and SCOP hierarchies

Charting Protein Superfamiles

VisIT

10 min

As above, for two selected protein superfamiles:

(Immunoglobins and PH-domain)

Structure Classification

RCSB PDB

15 min

Users are presented with two unclassified proteins and have to assign them likely classifications (PDB IDs 2cry.A, 2hvv.A)

Function Prediction

RCSB PDB

15 min

Users are presented with two proteins of unknown function and have to assign them likely functions (PDB IDs 3fh1.A, 3lno.A)
