Hi,
I would like to find a bioinformatic tool that will allow me to predict the
dimerisation interface of a protein.
A structural model has been generated, and it is known to exist as a homo-dimer.
Does anyone know of a suitable program?
Thank you for your help.
Karen
Hey Karen,
Pisa analyzes oligomerization interfaces.

PISA gives a good analysis of a known interface, but won't predict it
from scratch. So basically you need a protein-protein docking program of
which there are several:
3DDock, gramm, zdock, etc, etc
There's a review in G.R.Smith and MJE Sternberg, Curr Opion Struct Biol,

Karen,
MolSoft offers a free online tool that predicts protein-protein
interfaces using our ICM software.
