The Phyre2 web portal for protein modeling, prediction and analysis
Open accessAbstract
Phyre2 is a suite of tools available on the web to predict and analyze protein structure, function and mutations. The focus of Phyre2 is to provide biologists with a simple and intuitive interface to state-of-the-art protein bioinformatics tools. Phyre2 replaces Phyre, the original version of the server for which we previously published a paper in Nature Protocols. In this updated protocol, we describe Phyre2, which uses advanced remote homology detection methods to build 3D models, predict ligand binding sites and analyze the effect of amino acid variants (e.g., nonsynonymous SNPs (nsSNPs)) for a user's protein sequence. Users are guided through results by a simple interface at a level of detail they determine. This protocol will guide users from submitting a protein sequence to interpreting the secondary and tertiary structure of their models, their domain composition and model quality. A range of additional available tools is described to find a protein structure in a genome, to submit large number of sequences at once and to automatically run weekly searches for proteins that are difficult to model. The server is available at http://www.sbg.bio.ic.ac.uk/phyre2. A typical structure prediction will be returned between 30 min and 2 h after submission.

With the exception of the Unknown class, high confidence structural templates were identified for the vast majority of proteins for at least part of the sequence.
“With the exception of the Unknown class, high confidence structural templates were identified for the vast majority of proteins for at least part of the sequence (Supplementary Fig. 2 and Supplementary Data File 3).”

The Introduction’s Phyrealarm section reports that, among 30,000 Phyre2 submissions, more than 50% had over 75% of their sequence modelled with >90% confidence, and another 25% had between a quarter and three quarters confidently modelled. That supports high-confidence matches for at least part of many submitted proteins, but it does not establish the result for the citing paper’s proteins or address its “Unknown” class.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
