Table 2. Links in superfamily alignment database: links for all the members within a superfamily.

Superfamily member Links to programs that generate information useful for COMPARER in deriving structure-based sequence alignment ATM2SEQ, SEQ Generate sequence file in PIR format from the PDB file
    SSTRUC, SST Produce the secondary structure information from PDB
    PSA, PSA Generate solvent accessible information from the PDB file
    HBOND, HBD Produce hydrogen bonding patterns between mainchain–mainchain and mainchain–sidechain of the protein
