AMYCO: evaluation of mutational impact on prion-like proteins aggregation propensity.
Valentin IglesiasOscar Conchillo-SoleCristina BatlleSalvador VenturaPublished in: BMC bioinformatics (2019)
The AMYCO web server allows for a fast and automated evaluation of the effect of mutations on the aggregation properties of prion-like proteins. This might uncover novel disease-linked amino acid changes in the sequences of human prion-like proteins. Additionally, it can find application in the in silico design of synthetic prion-like proteins with tuned aggregation propensities for different purposes.
