Proteopedia-3D encyclopedia of proteins & other molecules
February 13, 2009Proteopedia is a resource that presents protein structure/function & other molecules information in a user friendly manner. It is a interactive, wiki web-resource whose pages have embedded three-dimensional structures surrounded by descriptive text containing hyperlinks that change the appearance (view, representations, colors, labels) of the adjacent three-dimensional structure to reflect the concept explained in the text.
Proteopedia is a wiki-based web-resource serves as a mechanism for making three-dimensional structures easier to understand, a linking of function to interactive three-dimensional structure visualization, and a simplified sharing of structural and functional knowledge
