NAFlex interface
NAFlex holds a personal workspace where structures and trajectories are stored.
Data is structured in "projects". A project is opened with an initial structure (coming either from a sequence or directly from a PDB file), or a trajectory. All operations are based on that initial input.
Data in the project is organized in a tree that outlines the history of every object back to the initial one.
Structures and trajectories are added to the tree once available.
The available operations and workflows are defined according to the type of the data.
User Registration
NAFlex gives the possibility to work as an anonymous user, or as a registered user.
Warning: Anonymous users' projects will be removed once disconnected or when session expires (after some minutes of inactivity).
On the other hand, Registered users' projects will be stored in our disks for a reasonable time. A capacity of 2 GB of disk space will be assigned for each registered user. Additional disk space can be allocated upon request.
New Project
NAFlex offers four main entry options:
- Simulation (Single Structure): Starts from a structure (PDB format), setup and run a MD simulation.
- Analysis (MD Trajectory): Starts from a trajectory (usual MD trajectory formats), analyse, get information or convert between MD trajectory formats.
- DNA/RNA Simulation from Sequence: Starts from a sequence, obtain a 3D structure from a nucleic acid sequence.
- Upload past NAFlex Project: Upload a previously stored NAFlex project.
More information about Input options can be found in the corresponding help section.
