IBIS is the NCBI Inferred Biomolecular Interaction Server. This server organizes, analyzes and predicts interaction partners and locations of binding sites in proteins. IBIS provides annotations for different types of binding partners (protein, chemical, nucleic acid and peptides), and facilitates the mapping of a comprehensive biomolecular interaction network for a given protein query. IBIS reports interactions observed in experimentally determined structural complexes of a given protein, and at the same time IBIS infers binding sites/interacting partners by inspecting protein complexes formed by homologous proteins. Similar binding sites are clustered together based on their sequence and structure conservation. To emphasize biologically relevant binding sites, several algorithms are used for verification in terms of evolutionary conservation, biological importance of binding partners, size and stability of interfaces, as well as evidence from the published literature. IBIS is updated regularly and is freely accessible via http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Structure/ibis/ibis.html.

Cn3D is a helper application for your web browser that allows you to view 3-dimensional structures from NCBI''s Entrez retrieval service. Cn3D runs on Windows, Macintosh, and Unix. Cn3D simultaneously displays structure, sequence, and alignment, and now has powerful annotation and alignment editing features. Cn3D is a tool for visualization of three-dimensional structures with emphasis on interactive examination of sequence-structure relationships and superposition of geometrically similar structures. Can be used to display MMDB structures, superpositions of VAST related structures, and conserved core motifs identified in conserved domains.
View all literature mentionsHosts the Munich Information Center for Protein Sequences (MIPS) and its main focus is the genome-oriented bioinformatics, in particular the systematic analysis of genome information including the development and application of bioinformatics methods in genome annotation, expression analysis and proteomics. MIPS supports and maintains a set of generic databases as well as the systematic comparative analysis of microbial, fungal, and plant genomes.
