NEW RELEASE OF STAMP (Structural Alignment of Multiple Proteins)
Version 4.0
STAMP is a package comprising 15 programs for alignment and analysis
of protein three-dimensional structures.
The major features are:
1) Fast alignment and superimposition of two or more protein
structures
2) Generation and display superimposed protein 3D structures
and sequence alignments
3) Comparison of a protein 3D structure to a database of
other 3D structures
4) Direct interface to MOLSCRIPT and ALSCRIPT drawing
programs
5) A clear method for assigning which regions within a
family of proteins are structurally equivalent, without
the need for graphical intervention.
STAMP is available free of charge to non-profit organisations, and
to others for a fee. A license must be completed by all prospective
users. Users of previous versions of STAMP can obtain the new
version with the same license.
The new version (4.0) has corrected several bugs, ontains a much
improved manual and includes several new programs, including those
for the generation of MOLSCRIPT input, and for the generation of
averaged structures.
