model.it® Server

This server produces a 3D model of DNA molecule given a sequence of maximum 700 nucleotides. You can select either standard DNA conformations (B-DNA, A-DNA) or bent conformations, predicted by a set of structural parameters. The output is a PDB file that you can visualize by standard programs such as SwissPDBviewer, Chime, Rasmol. Models of bent DNA (up to 50 basepairs) can be optimized/refined by energy minimization and molecular dynamics. Cuurent options include
  • Straight B-DNA
  • Straight A-DNA
  • Curved DNA, built according to various models.
