The MSSP supports RESTful (REpresentational State Transfer) Web Services to make accessing data easier.
The service returns a list of all possible descritors to use as parameter to 2D plot service (decribed bellow): /rest/mssp/getparameters
Example: Get structural alignment and 2D plot of accessible solvent area (ASA) for chains 1ppf.E and 1slu.B: /rest/mssp/get2dplot?pdbcodes=1ppfE,1sluB¶meter=AIR:1
Where parameter receives a descriptor name (e.g. AIR) and an integer code specifing a particular type of that descriptor (e.g. 1).
See table bellow for a complete list of supported descriptors names and codes. Also refer to Sting Mega Help to get a detailed description of each protein descriptor.
