The [[http://consurf.tau.ac.il ConSurf Server]], a project led by Nir Ben-Tal and Tal Pupko (Tel-Aviv University, Israel), colors each amino acid in a protein structure by its level of evolutionary conservation. Available since 2002 and constantly upgraded, all methods are documented and its algorithms are published in peer-reviewed journals. When the confidence interval around a conservation grade is too wide, ConSurf assigns that residue a yellow color for "insufficient data". | |||
Here are listed pages in Proteopedia about evolutionary conservation, how to use the [http://consurf.tau.ac.il ConSurf Server], and how to interpret its results to identify functional sites in proteins. | Here are listed pages in Proteopedia about evolutionary conservation, how to use the [http://consurf.tau.ac.il ConSurf Server], and how to interpret its results to identify functional sites in proteins. | ||
