Swiss-Model
An Automated Knowledge-based Protein Modelling Server
Introduction:
Swiss-Model is an Automated Protein Modelling Server running at the GLAXO Institute for Molecular Biology in Geneva, Switzerland (GIMB).
The purpose of this server is to make Protein Modelling accessible to all biochemists and molecular biologists World Wide.
The present version of the server is 2.1 and is under constant improvement and debugging. In order to help us refine the sequence analysis and modelling algorithms, please submit requests to the server and report of possible bugs and problems with the modelling procedure.
New:
The G-protein coupled Receptor modelling tool is now available.
Please look at the Swiss-PdbViewer, our new Macintosh tool for structure display and analysis, which is
under development in Geneva.
Please have a look at Frequently Asked Questions and Swiss-Model Help.
The result of any modelling procedure is NON-EXPERIMENTAL and MUST be considered with care. This is especially true since there is no human intervention during model building.
How to Access Swiss-Model:
You may access Swiss-Model from here and submit your requests through these forms:
- First Approach mode Allows you to determine if a particular sequence can be modelled. If this is possible,
you will get a first model for it, as well as the files needed for the Optimise mode.
- Optimise mode Allows fine tuning of the modelling performed in the First Approach mode.
- GPCR/7TM mode Interface to the G-protein coupled
receptor modelling mode of the server.
