DRONA

The study of biomolecular interactions is most important step for system-wide analysis. The biological interactions between Nucleic acids and proteins are essential for many cellular processes. The DNA/RNA interacting residues information is necessory for whole understanding of related molecular mechanisms. The structural determination and identification of DNA/RNA interacting residues in protein is very time consuming process. Thus, protein suquence based DNA/RNA interacting residues prediction tools are highly desirable for functional annotation of DNA/RNA binding proteins.

DRONA is a user friendly web-server/standalone-software for the prediction and classification of DNA/RNA interacting residues in protein sequence. A very simple approach, composition of patterns has been adopted in the development of DRONA. This appraoch is fast and outperforms other publicly available prediction methods.
