ConSurf/Index

Here are listed pages in Proteopedia about evolutionary conservation, how to use the ConSurf Server, and how to interpret its results to identify functional sites in proteins.

• Introduction to Evolutionary Conservation: an explanation starting at the beginning, with examples.
• Conservation, Evolutionary covers
  • How to locate conserved and variable patches
  • Conservation expected to support folding of domains
  • Unrelated sequences in the MSA obscure functional sites, re: ConSurfDB
  • Comparing sequence-different chains
  • Drift in results over time due to database growth
  • Other evolutionary conservation servers besides ConSurf

• How to see conserved regions lists options and how to get started.
• ConSurf Quick Analysis Procedure: step by step for submitting a job to ConSurf.
