The Alanine Scanning Energetics database (ASEdb) is a searchable database of single alanine mutations in protein-protein, protein-nucleic acid, and protein-small molecule interactions for which binding affinities have been experimentally determined. In cases where structures are available, it contains surface areas of the mutated side chain and links to the PDB entries. It is useful for studying the contribution of single amino acids to the energetics of protein interactions, and can be updated by researchers as new data are generated.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
