Key Points

To re-engineer the ENDscript web server into an automated, interactive platform integrated with ESPript 3 for rapid extraction, analysis, and visualization of primary through quaternary protein structure data.
Re-engineered the computational pipeline to integrate ESPript 3 for high-throughput multiple sequence alignment rendering with reduced computation time.
Implemented automated parsing of single Protein Data Bank (PDB) entries or user-uploaded files to calculate residue conservation, secondary structure elements, and biophysical properties.
Integrated 2D sequence-level data mapping onto interactive 3D PyMOL molecular graphics and created an open platform for importing external web-server data.
Generates publication-ready figures displaying multiple sequence alignments of homologous proteins colored by residue conservation alongside experimental secondary structure elements.
Enables automated mapping of comprehensive biophysical, sequence, and structural attributes onto interactive 3D PyMOL visualizations.
Provides a free, customizable web interface supporting both automated basic analysis and fine-tuned expert configurations for external structural tools.
