Abstract

MOFOID is a new server developed mainly for automated modeling of protein structures by their homology to the structures deposited in the PDB database. Selection of a template and calculation of the alignment is performed with the Smith-Waterman or Needleman-Wunsch algorithms implemented in the EMBOSS package. The final model is built and optimised with programs from the JACKAL package. The wide spectrum of options in the web-based interface and the possibility of uploading user's own alignment make MOFOID a suitable platform for testing new approaches in the alignment building. The server is available at https:// valis.ibb.waw.pl/mofoid/.
