RPBS (Ressource Parisienne en Bioinformatique Structurale) is a resource dedicated primarily to structural bioinformatics. It is the result of a joint effort by several teams to set up an interface that offers original and powerful methods in the field. As an illustration, we focus here on three such methods uniquely available at RPBS: AUTOMAT for sequence databank scanning, YAKUSA for structure databank scanning and WLOOP for homology loop modelling. The RPBS server can be accessed at and the specific services at .
