Daisy: An integrated repeat protein curation service.

Tandem repeats in proteins identification, classification and curation is a complex process that requires manual processing from experts, processing power and time. There are recent and relevant advances applying machine learning for protein structure prediction and repeat classification that are useful for this process. However, no service contemplates required databases and software to supplement researching on repeat proteins.

A STRP-ed definition of Structured Tandem Repeats in Proteins.

Tandem Repeat Proteins (TRPs) are a class of proteins with repetitive amino acid sequences that have been studied extensively for over two decades. Different features at the level of sequence, structure, function and evolution have been attributed to them by various authors. And yet many of its salient features appear only when looking at specific subclasses of protein tandem repeats.

CoDNaS-Q: a database of conformational diversity of the native state of proteins with quaternary structure.

Summary: A collection of conformers that exist in a dynamical equilibrium defines the native state of a protein. The structural differences between them describe their conformational diversity, a defining characteristic of the protein with an essential role in multiple cellular processes. Since most proteins carry out their functions by assembling into complexes, we have developed CoDNaS-Q, the first online resource to explore conformational diversity in homooligomeric proteins.

CoDNaS-RNA: a database of conformational diversity in the native state of RNA.

Summary: Conformational changes in RNA native ensembles are central to fulfill many of their biological roles. Systematic knowledge of the extent and possible modulators of this conformational diversity is desirable to better understand the relationship between RNA dynamics and function. We have developed CoDNaS-RNA as the first database of conformational diversity in RNA molecules.

RepeatsDB in 2021: improved data and extended classification for protein tandem repeat structures.

The RepeatsDB database (URL: https://repeatsdb.org/) provides annotations and classification for protein tandem repeat structures from the Protein Data Bank (PDB). Protein tandem repeats are ubiquitous in all branches of the tree of life.
