- "3D-DART: a DNA structure modelling server" by van Dijk and Bonvin from Utrecht University, The Netherlands. Excerpt from the abstract:
As a response to the demand for 3D-structural models reflecting the intrinsic plasticity of DNA we present the 3D-DART server (3DNA-Driven DNA Analysis and Rebuilding Tool). The server provides an easy interface to a powerful collection of tools for the generation of DNA-structural models in custom conformations. The computational engine beyond the server makes use of the 3DNA software suite together with a collection of home-written python scripts.
- "Web 3DNA—a web server for the analysis, reconstruction, and visualization of three-dimensional nucleic-acid structures" by Zheng, me and Olson. Excerpt from the abstract:
The w3DNA (web 3DNA) server is a user-friendly web-based interface to the 3DNA suite of programs for the analysis, reconstruction, and visualization of three-dimensional (3D) nucleic-acid-containing structures, including their complexes with proteins and other ligands.
It is also worthy noting the in the same 2009 NAR web-server issue, another paper titled "SARA: a server for function annotation of RNA structures" by Capriotti and Marti-Renom from Spain also makes use of 3DNA. This serves to emphasize the point that 3DNA is not just for DNA, but for RNA as well -- 3DNA has unique features for RNA that are not found in other currently available software tools that I am aware of.
