Introduction:
Swiss-Model [references]
is an Automated Protein Modelling Server running at the Geneva Biomedical
Research Institute, Glaxo Wellcome Research and Development S.A.,
Switzerland.
The purpose of this server is to make Protein Modelling accessible
to all biochemists and molecular biologists World Wide.
The present version of the server is 2.1 and is under constant
improvement and debugging. In order to help us refine the sequence analysis
and modelling algorithms, please submit requests to the server and report
of possible bugs and problems with the modelling procedure.
New: The SWISS-MODEL Repository
is now available.
Please look at the Swiss-PdbViewer,
our new Macintosh/PC tool for structure display and analysis, which is
under development in Geneva.
Please have a look at Frequently Asked
Questions and Swiss-Model Help.
-
This is a free service provided to the scientific community.
-
Glaxo Wellcome will neither store nor look at the sequences you submit.
The result of any modelling procedure is NON-EXPERIMENTAL and MUST be considered
with care. This is especially true since there is no human intervention
during model building.
How to Access Swiss-Model:
You may access Swiss-Model from here and submit your requests through
these forms:
-
First Approach
mode Allows you to determine if a particular sequence can be modelled.
If this is possible, you will get a first model for it, as well as the
files needed for the Optimise mode.
-
Optimise mode
Allows fine tuning of the modelling performed in the First Approach mode.
-
GPCR/7TM mode
Interface to the G-protein coupled receptor modelling mode of the server.
