ModBase is a database of annotated comparative protein structure models. The models are calculated by ModPipe, an automated modeling pipeline that relies primarily on Modeller for fold assignment, ...sequence–structure alignment, model building and model assessment. ModBase currently contains 10 355 444 reliable models for domains in 2 421 920 unique protein sequences. ModBase allows users to update comparative models on demand, and request modeling of additional sequences through an interface to the ModWeb modeling server. ModBase models are available through the ModBase interface as well as the Protein Model Portal. Recently developed associated resources include the SALIGN server for multiple sequence and structure alignment, the ModEval server for predicting the accuracy of protein structure models, the PCSS server for predicting which peptides bind to a given protein and the FoXS server for calculating and fitting Small Angle X-ray Scattering profiles.
In a randomized trial conducted in Norway, decompression surgery alone was noninferior to decompression with instrumented fusion with respect to the percentage of patients who had a 30% reduction on ...a scale of pain and disability over a period of 2 years, with a noninferiority margin of −15 percentage points.

We have implemented extensions to the Brookhaven Protein Data Bank (PDB) file format for incorporating scene information such as viewing parameters, additional molecular information (e.g., van der ...Waals radii and atom colors), and user-defined graphics. These extensions were made in conformance with the PDB standard and provide sufficient information to render the scene in various styles such as space-filling images and ribbon diagrams. For the past 5 years these extensions have been used in the MidasPlus molecular modeling system and have proved both powerful and sufficient for generating complex molecular images. We propose that the extensions to the PDB presented here be adopted by the molecular modeling community for incorporation into visualization programs.

We describe a method for generating a molecular surface using a parametric patch representation. Unlike previous methods, this algorithm generates a parametric patch surface which is smooth and G ...continuous and manipulable in real-time. Crucial to our approach is the creation of a net of approximately equilateral triangles from which we generate the control points used as the basis for describing the surface. We present in detail the method used for generating the triangular net and accompanying control points, along with examples of the resulting surfaces.
