e-NMR: Computational NMR Infrastructure in biomolecular life sciences and system biology

In order to enable the life science community to make full use of the EGEE computing resources we have developed e-infrastructure named eNMR (EU 7th FP). It deploys and integrates biomolecular NMR applications into a platform, so that EU scientists could easily access it via a standard browser interface and to use it on every step of their research process. The sequence of available web-portals covers all aspects of bio-NMR: data acquisition, processing, analysis, protein/DNA/RNA structure calculation, molecular docking, validation, deposition etc. Life-science researchers require the full range of advanced computational techniques in order to analyze complex biological data acquired experimentally at the EU NMR facilities. It becomes increasingly impossible to fulfill all of their requirements using the local computing resources. eNMR is part of EGEE where were developed solutions for performance computing, data access, authentication, security, accounting and usage statistics. Thus e-NMR platform has all the strength of Grids, however, its focus is science-driven. For example, in addition to already available applications, new ones are being identified and ported continuously, aiming to cover all aspects of bio-NMR; the enhancements to the grid middleware (gLite) are carried out to match the requirements of the applications. Since the e-NMR portals have the similar look and feel as bioinformatics web-gateways that have been available to the Life Science community for ...
