You can find the server here
Very easy to use, just download the structure if you have new versions of browser (bigger than Explorer 5.x and Netscape 4.5), otherwise email submission; no other possible operation
both options for uploading the file and the results are delivered only in e-mail form
on the main page there is a original paper describing the method and small old review(1994) about a structural comparison both in html format.
I haven't found any information
Usually very fast (4-8 minutes), but eventually can be slow and take a few hours (probably because of high server load)
As long as you don't erase them, since the results are sent through email
It contains PDB ID of similar structure, z score, RMSD, number of equivalent residues and others. List is sorted by z-score. Lines and rows in the list of the hits are disordered in Outlook email program, less disordered in web-based email programs - difficult to orient.
Z score- strength of structural similarity in standart deviation above expected
yes, structural alignment in text format (list of equivalent fragments between structure), not very friendly (very tough to find needy information)
not directly from results, only possibility is from Dali domain dictionary, but only with known structures, not with new structure
, but there is a very well shelter hyperlink to Rasmol software at help page, almost impossible to find
only to FSSP from results and to FSSP and Dali domain dictionary and MaxSprout (reconstruction of full coordinates from C-alpha trace) from main page.
No
no, it searches in the subset of PDB (contains structures with sequence identity less than 25 percent), but it is not easy to gain this information, only if you submit structure by email you can meet this information
the same as PDB's frequency of update (once a week)
