REPAIRtoire is an online database for systems biology of DNA damage and repair. The database collects and organizes the following types of information: (i) DNA damage linked to environmental mutagenic and cytotoxic agents, (ii) pathways comprising individual processes and enzymatic reactions involved in the removal of damage, (iii) proteins participating in DNA repair and (iv) diseases correlated with mutations in genes encoding DNA repair proteins. The DNA repair and tolerance pathways are represented as graphs and in tabular form with descriptions of each repair step and corresponding proteins, and individual entries are cross-referenced to supporting literature and primary databases. In addition, a tool for drawing custom DNA-protein complexes is available online.

MODOMICS is the first comprehesive database system for systems biology of RNA modification. It integrates information about the chemical structure of modified nucleosides, their localization in RNA sequences, pathways of their biosynthesis and enzymes that carry out the respective reactions (including the available protein sequence and structure data). It also provides literature information, and links to other databases. The database can be queried by the type of nucleoside (e.g. A, G, C, U, I, m1A, nm5s2U etc.), type of RNA, position of a particular nucleoside, type of reaction (e.g. methylation, thiolation, deamination, etc.), and name or sequence of an enzyme of interest. Options for data presentation include graphs of pathways involving the query nucleoside, multiple sequence alignments of RNA sequences and tabular forms with enzyme and literatiure data. The contents of MODOMICS can be accessed through the World Wide Web at http://genesilico.pl/modomics/

RNA Bricks is a database of RNA 3D structure motifs and their contacts, both with themselves and with proteins. The database provides structure-quality score annotations and tools for the RNA 3D structure search and comparison. 

RNArchitecture is a database that provides a comprehensive description of relationships between known families of structured non-coding RNAs, with a focus on structural similarities. The classification is hierarchical and similar to the system used in the SCOP and CATH databases of protein structures. Its central level is Family, which builds on the Rfam catalog, and gathers closely related RNAs. Consensus structures of Families are described with a reduced secondary structure representation. Evolutionarily related Families are grouped into Superfamilies. Similar structures are further grouped into Architectures. The highest level, Class, organizes Families into very broad structural categories, such as simple or complex structured RNAs. Some groups at different levels of the hierarchy are currently labeled as “unclassified”. For each Family with an experimentally determined 3D structure(s), a representative one is provided. RNArchitecture also presents theoretical models of RNA 3D structure and is open for submission of structural models by users. Compared to other databases, RNArchitecture is unique in its focus on structure-based RNA classification, and in providing a platform for storing RNA 3D structure predictions. RNArchitecture can be accessed at http://iimcb.genesilico.pl/RNArchitecture/.

*The classification is expected to evolve as new data become available and we would like to encourage all interested parties to submit their suggestions for improvement as well as 3D structure predictions* 

Two-dimensional maps of contacts summarize interactions between amino acids in the structure. They reveal characteristic patterns of interactions between secondary and super-secondary structures and are very attractive for visual analysis. The overlap of the residue contact maps of two structures can be easily calculated, providing a sensitive measure of protein structure similarity.

We developed two medium-resolution, knowledge-based potentials for scoring protein-RNA models obtained by docking: the quasi-chemical potential (QUASI-RNP) and the Decoys As the Reference State potential (DARS-RNP). Both potentials use a coarse-grained representation for both RNA and protein molecules and are capable of dealing with RNA structures with posttranscriptionally modified residues. In our tests that compared these methods to other published potentials, DARS-RNP showed the highest ability to identify native-like structures.

The GeneSilico MetaServer is a gateway to a number of third-party methods for protein structure prediction (identification of domains, secondary structure prediction, fold-recognition, and finally, 3D model generation). Users can submit a protein sequence (or alignment) by a single click, then analyze the summary of results generated by many methods, and finally predict the protein structure according to the "consensus" approach.

This is an "alpha" version of a server for discrimination of a large number of alternative models of protein structure against a set of restraints derived from low-resolution experimental analyses (such as cross-linking, mutagenesis, circular dichrosm etc.) as well as from computational predictions (e.g. solvent accessibility, amino acid contact maps).

Co-crystallization experiments of proteins with nucleic acids do not guarantee that both components are present in the crystal. While working as a PhD student with Matthias Bochtler, Grzegorz Chojnowski developed DIBER - a method with which to predict crystal content (DNA? protein? or both?) from the diffraction data. Now, we have together developed RIBER, which should be used when protein and RNA are in the crystallization drop. The combined RIBER/DIBER suite builds on machine learning techniques to make reliable, quantitative predictions of crystal content for non-expert users and high throughput crystallography. RIBER/DIBER requires diffraction data to at least 3.0 Å resolution in MTZ or CIF format.

MinkoFit3D is a method for fitting macromolecular assemblies or their components into electron density maps. Our approach is based on finding “tight passages” inferred from the Minkowski sum boundary of two polyhedral surfaces of the structure and its map. Following the initial fit, either a robust brute-force or a genetic algorithm is used to build an initial assembly, and multi-body refinement is applied in direct electron density space.

QA-RecombineIt provides a web interface to assess the quality of protein 3D structure models and to improve the accuracy of models by merging fragments of multiple input models. In the first stage (QA-mode), our server predicts the global quality of input models and provides estimates of local quality as the deviation between C-α atoms in the models and corresponding atoms in the unknown native structure. Together with the input models, these predictions subsequently become the input for the second stage (RecombineIt-mode), in which fragments predicted to be better than others are judiciously combined to generate hybrid (consensus) models. Finally, hybrid models are scored by the MQAPs implemented in the QA-mode and then presented to the user

Unique features of the program are the ability to identify imperfect contacts and to process coarse-grained models. Each doublet of spatially close ribonucleotide residues in a query structure is compared to clusters of reference doublets obtained by analysis of a large number of experimentally determined RNA structures, and assigned a score that describes its similarity to one or more known types of contacts, including pairing, stacking, base–phosphate and base–ribose interactions.

BrickworX web server builds RNA and DNA models into electron density maps at resolutions as low as 4 Å. On input the program requires a MTZ file with structure factor amplitudes and phases. 

GDFuzz3D is a method for protein 3D structure modeling, which starts from the protein sequence and a map of contacts between amino acid residues. It can handle predicted maps that contain e.g., probabilities of contacts between all residues, and a high fraction of incorrectly predicted contacts. It is not appropriate for predicting structures based on maps with only a few predicted contacts.

The program takes as an input a set of unmodified tRNA sequences and a set of protein sequences corresponding to a proteome of a cell, identifies all RNA residues that correspond to known modification sites with known enzymes, finds homologs of known tRNA modification enzymes, and maps the predictions onto known pathways of RNA modification, to identify theoretically possible modification reactions for all positions in query tRNAs.
