PreDs: a server for predicting dsDNA-binding site on protein molecular surfaces.
PreDs is a WWW server that predicts the dsDNA-binding sites on protein molecular surfaces generated from the atomic coordinates in a PDB format. The prediction was done by evaluating the electrostatic potential, the local curvature and the global curvature on the surfaces. Results of the prediction can be interactively checked with our original surface viewer.
