Assessing protein loop flexibility by hierarchical Monte Carlo sampling.
Loop flexibility is often crucial to protein biological function in solution. We report a new Monte Carlo method for generating conformational ensembles for protein loops and cyclic peptides. The approach incorporates the triaxial loop closure method which addresses the inverse kinematic problem for generating backbone move sets that do not break the loop. Sidechains are sampled together with t...
متن کاملEfficient Monte Carlo sampling by parallel marginalization.
Markov chain Monte Carlo sampling methods often suffer from long correlation times. Consequently, these methods must be run for many steps to generate an independent sample. In this paper, a method is proposed to overcome this difficulty. The method utilizes information from rapidly equilibrating coarse Markov chains that sample marginal distributions of the full system. This is accomplished th...
متن کاملHierarchical Monte-Carlo Planning
Monte-Carlo Tree Search, especially UCT and its POMDP version POMCP, have demonstrated excellent performance on many problems. However, to efficiently scale to large domains one should also exploit hierarchical structure if present. In such hierarchical domains, finding rewarded states typically requires to search deeply; covering enough such informative states very far from the root becomes co...
متن کاملHierarchical Monte Carlo Radiosity
Hierarchical radiosity and Monte Carlo radiosity are branches of radiosity research that focus on complementary problems. The synthesis of both families of radiosity algorithms has however received little attention until now. In this paper, a procedure is presented that bridges the gap. It allows any proposed hierarchical refinement strategy to be investigated in the context of an arbitrary dis...
متن کاملFast Protein Loop Sampling and Structure Prediction Using Distance-Guided Sequential Chain-Growth Monte Carlo Method
Loops in proteins are flexible regions connecting regular secondary structures. They are often involved in protein functions through interacting with other molecules. The irregularity and flexibility of loops make their structures difficult to determine experimentally and challenging to model computationally. Conformation sampling and energy evaluation are the two key components in loop modelin...
