MOLE 2.5online introduction page

MOLEonline 2.5 web interface provides a direct access to MOLE 2.5 functionality and enables on-line and easy-to-use interactive channel analysis.

MOLE 2.5 is an universal toolkit for rapid and fully automated location and characterization of channels, tunnels and pores in (bio)macromolecular structures.

MOLEonline 2.5 features

  • Channel calculation three times quicker than previous version of MOLE
  • Automatic active site identification for enzymes using CSA
  • Interactive visualization of structure and channels with Jmol
  • Interactive selection of starting points from the sequence or set of residues
  • Automatic detection of starting points in cavities
  • Visualization of starting points
  • Cavity and molecular surface visualization
  • Tunnel size profile
  • Analysis of residues lining channels along with sidechain/mainchain resolution with physicochemical properties (charge, polarity, hydropathy, hydrophobicity, mutability, etc.)
  • Results download in form of report, channel export in format of PDB and pymol python script
  • Free of charge

Additional features of MOLE 2.5 standalone application

  • Additional powerful selection options for structure preparation prior channel calculation
  • Comparison of channels in several different structures
  • Selection of channels to a specific exit
  • Vizualization of cavities and unconnected voids
  • Powerful visualization engine with 3D option

Windows desktop version and Windows, Linux and Mac OS command line version can be downloaded on webchem site.

Quick start

:
PDB ID code as can be found on www.pdb.org, for example 1z10.
:
no value - assymetric unit (default)
1 - biological unit 1,
(2 - biological unit 2, etc. )
:
no value - all chains (default)
AB1 - only chains A, B and 1
:
Plain text PDB files (UTF-8 encoding), ZIP and GZIP archives are supported, maximal file size is 50MB.
E.g. cleaned PDB with only one chain and without unnecessary HETATMs.
