XLink-DB: Database and Software Tools for Storing and Visualizing Protein Interaction Topology Data

As
large-scale cross-linking data becomes available, new software
tools for data processing and visualization are required to replace
manual data analysis. XLink-DB serves as a data storage site and visualization
tool for cross-linking results. XLink-DB accepts data generated with
any cross-linker and stores them in a relational database. Cross-linked
sites are automatically mapped onto PDB structures if available, and
results are compared to existing protein interaction databases. A
protein interaction network is also automatically generated for the
entire data set. The XLink-DB server, including examples, and a help
page are available for noncommercial use at http://brucelab.gs.washington.edu/crosslinkdbv1/. The source code can be viewed and downloaded at https://sourceforge.net/projects/crosslinkdb/?source=directory.
