Protein folding software

[Geoff Barton]

> My friend wishes to ask a question..

> Recently a few programs have been written that tackle the problem of

> contacts, they check whether a primary sequence can adopt a known 
> protein fold.  I'm aware that Skolnick's Matchmaker is available from 
> TRIPOS associates, and that Thornton is trying to get a server version 
> of her program running, but I haven't been able to find out where I 
> can obtain any of the many other programs which have been written. 
> Would anybody out there know how I can get the programs from 
> Eisenberg (UCLA), Sippl (University of Salzburg), Bryant (nih), 
> Crippen, Wolynes, or Schneider?

You can get Dr. Steve Bryant's program off the ncbi server (ncbi.nlm.nih.gov).
You can get Prof. David Eisenberg's programs from him - 
                                    email to david at edu.ucla.mbi.uclaue.
