Residues

err, do you already have the binding cavity residues defined? it sounds to me like you want to highlight residues but you also expect the proggie to know which parts of the linear seq correspond to the 3d shape.

Dear bioinformaticians, does anyone know any multiple alignment editor where I can import a a list of residues to highlight, either in the form of a file or in batch mode? I have a MA of 52 proteins and need to highlight the residues of the binding cavity. You realize that ...

... I don't remember what was the case with plants and glycosylation, but like Jonmoulton said, antibodies have very specific places for sugar residues that you need to get right (in some proteins sugars don't play a crucial role, but here you might want them in their right places). Then again, ...

... parts (nothing it really that straightforward, but it is a useful fiction). The structural areas could undergo some random drift in amino acid residues -- some changes would be harmful, but others wouldn't matter. The functional areas, such as catalytic sites, must retain particular amino acid ...
