Visualization of unfavorable interactions in protein folds.
Three dimensional structures of proteins contain errors which often originate from limitations of the experimental techniques employed. Such errors frequently result in unfavorable atomic interactions. Here we present a new web service, called Interaction Viewer, for the visualization and correction of such errors. We show how the Interaction Viewer is used in combination with the NQ-Flipper service to spot strained asparagine and glutamine rotamers and we emphasize the convenience of this service in correcting such errors.


BACKGROUND
The web service is integrated with the NQ-Flipper service and accessible at http://flipper.services.came.sbg.ac.at
