Dasty and UniProt DAS: a perfect pair for protein feature visualization

In this study, we present two freely available and complementary Distributed Annotation System (DAS) resources: a DAS reference server that provides up-to-date sequence and annotation from UniProt, with additional feature links and database cross-references from InterPro and a DAS client implemented...

Description
Summary:In this study, we present two freely available and complementary Distributed Annotation System (DAS) resources: a DAS reference server that provides up-to-date sequence and annotation from UniProt, with additional feature links and database cross-references from InterPro and a DAS client implemented using Java and Macromedia Flash that is optimized for the display of protein features. Availability: The Dasty DAS client is freely available at the following URLs: Dasty DAS Client (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/das-srv/uniprot/dasty/), Dasty Example Query (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/das-srv/uniprot/dasty/index.jsp?ID=Q24488), UniProt DAS Service (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/das-srv/uniprot/das), Dasty Documentation (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/dasty/) and UniProt DAS Documentation (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/uniprot-das/). It is intended that the Dasty client package and source code will be available for download and local installation in the coming weeks. The UniProt DAS reference server and the associated documentation can be freely accessed via the EBI site at the given link. Contact: For further details of the Dasty client, please contact N.V. (nvinod@ebi.ac.uk). For further details of the UniProt DAS server, please contact P.J. (pjones@ebi.ac.uk).
