| Last Update: 01-11-2001 |
| Description: TRITON is graphical tool for modelling protein mutants and assessment of their activities. Protein mutants are modelled based on the wild type structure by homology modelling using the external program MODELLER. Chemical reactions taking place in the mutants active site are modelled using the semi-empirical quantum mechanic program MOPAC. Semi-quantitative predictions of mutants activities can be achieved by evaluating the changes in energies of the system and partial atomic charges of the active site residues during the reaction. The program TRITON offers graphical tools for the preparation of the input data files, for calculation and for the analysis of the generated output data. Implementation ensures the overall integrity of consecutive steps of the modelling of mutants and calculation of reaction coordinates, but the program can also be used simply for combinatorial generation of multiple mutants by homology modelling. |
