Protein structure comparison- sortware needed - (Aug/03/2006 )

Hello,

I search for an easy to use and understand software for protein sructure comparison. I have an protein structure (pdb-file) and want to find other proteins, which maybe don^t have similar sequences but similiar topologys.
Does somebody know a nice software?

Hey,

I don't know about software to deal with your activity, but NCBI has a VAST database where you can insert your PDB code. It will thens search its DB for relatives.

Have a wander through EXPASY. There are threading, sequence comparison, homology modelling applications etc. You're suret o find something there.
