Summary
ProDy, an integrated API developed for modelling and analysing protein dynamics, has significantly evolved in recent years in response to the growing data and needs of computational biology community. We present major developments that led to ProDy 2.0: (i) improved interfacing with databases and parsing new file formats, (ii) SignDy for signature dynamics of protein families, (iii) CryoDy for collective dynamics of supramolecular systems using cryo-EM density maps, and (v) essential site scanning analysis (ESSA) for identifying sites essential to modulating global dynamics.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
