MetaPath Online gives users access to an algorithm for network expansion. Starting with given metabolites, called seed compounds, the algorithm uses known information about metabolic reactions and pathways to expand the network and define scope. This systematic investigation of structure-function relationships of metabolic networks can offer evolutionary insights.
Phosfinder uses a structural comparison algorithm to identify phosphate binding sites in protein structures. It scans a query structure in PDB format against a set of known 3D phosphate binding motifs and outputs a visual display of the predicted binding sites on the query protein structure.
