1. Proteopedia Eran Hodis, Jaime Prilusky, Eric Martz, Joel Sussman A Tool to Make 3D Structural Data More Comprehensible

2. Markus Fisher, Katie Rosa, Barry Honig Thank you

3. It’s hard to believe, but… 3D structures are often times hard to understand -- even for a structural biologist!

4. 123 456

5. Levinthal and the Kluge 1965, MIT

6. Structural biology everywhere 13 Nobel prizes since 1st protein structure solved Covers on Nature, Science, Cell, …

7. Growth in PDB 53,521 structures but… Oct 7, 2008

8. But, structural biology still suffers from a communication problem Often communicating 3D in 2D And not that accessible to non-structural biologists that don’t have experience with molecular visualization programs Structural Biology, needs to make a special effort to develop tools for communication and accessibility, specifically better tools to integrate 3D structure with functional information

10. Just some of the Great tools! KING (“kinemage” kinetic image) Protein Explorer FirstGlance in Jmol PDBSum Kumar & Ziegler

11. 3 Key Elements: Present 3D information in an intuitive manner A web browser is all you need Content can be added by anyone, easily, without need to add on/purchase a program GOAL: to make structural information instantly accessible to a broad scientific audience

13. 3 Key Elements: Present 3D information in an intuitive manner A web browser is all you need Content can be added by anyone, easily, without need to add on/purchase a program Proteopedia aids in making structural information more understandable & accessible

14. Lets take a look at another example poly(A) polymerase

15. PDB entry pages (seeded pages) vs protein or protein class pages (topic pages) Dr. Jaime Prilusky

16. Adding scenes is easy!

17. How easy is it to add a scene? (green link) 1acj

18. Narrated video tutorial at Main Page www.proteopedia.org

19. Proteopedia Built on Open Source tools: –MediaWiki –Jmol Content is free under GNU FDL license (same as Wikipedia). Proteopedia just the vehicle for creation & dissemination Content - can be added by anyone, easily via user friendly authoring tools to link text to 3D structures. http://www.proteopedia.org

20. A wiki for the scientific community Names of contributors are listed on each page to give credit & add responsibility

21. A wiki for the scientific community Each User can have a special area that only she/he can edit - useful for: Tutorials Lectures Supplementary information for journal articles

22. Proteopedia is already in use & evolving with feedback (over 200 registered users)

23. How are people using it? As a 3D encyclopedia and…

24. The structure of a human p110alpha/p85alpha complex elucidates the effects of oncogenic PI3Kalpha mutations., Huang CH, Mandelker D, Schmidt-Kittler O, Samuels Y, Velculescu VE, Kinzler KW, Vogelstein B, Gabelli SB, Amzel LM, Science. 2007 Dec 14;318(5857):1744-8. 2rd0 Fig. 2

25. Assignments for class Prof. Karl Oberholser Messiah College, PA Student: Ms. Emily Forscher Photosystem II

26. Supplementary material Crystal structure of the Agrobacterium virulence complex VirE1-VirE2 reveals a flexible protein that can accommodate different partners Orly Dym, Shira Albeck, Tamar Unger, Jossef Jacobovitch, Anna Branzburg, Yigal Michael, Daphna Frenkiel-Krispin, Sharon Grayer Wolf, and Michael Elbaum PNAS August 12, 2008 vol. 105 no. 32 11170- 11175

27. Conformational Changes Proton Channels

28. What to expect as a Viewing User? Explore, but don’t expect to find a well-developed page on your favorite protein Use the PDB entry pages to get Abstract + 3D structure on the same page

29. Proteopedia allows you to be creative Even though the tools are here, and the technical barriers lowered dramatically via Proteopedia’s relative ease of use … It still takes some thought to make a good page!

30. Proteopedia linked to from PSI-Nature Knowledge Base

31. Coming soon Biological molecule vs asymmetric unit Color by evolutionary conservation Save high resolution snapshots of 3D structures

32. You’re invited ! Proteopedia can help you with 1)Effective & intuitive communication of structural information 2)Creating 3D figures for publications 3)Engaging structural tutorials & lectures Without you, Proteopedia is just a tool

33. The Proteopedia Team Thanks also to John Moult and Israel Silman Prof. Joel Sussman Dr. Jaime Prilusky Eran Hodis Prof. Eric Martz
