PFstats: A Network-Based Open Tool for Protein Family Analysis
Abstract
PFstats is a software developed for the extraction of useful information from protein multiple sequence alignments. By analyzing positional conservation and residue coevolution networks, the software allows the identification of structurally and functionally important residue groups and the discovery of probable functional subclasses. Furthermore, it contains tools for the identification of the possible biological significance of these findings. PFstats contains methods for maximizing the significance of alignments through filtering and weighting, residue conservation and coevolution analysis, automatic UniprotKb queries for residue-position annotation and many possible data visualization methods.
