Classification of protein-DNA complexes based on structural descriptors.
We attempt to classify protein-DNA complexes by using a set of 11 descriptors, mainly characterizing protein-DNA interactions, including the number of atomic contacts at major and minor grooves, conformational deviations from standard B- and A-DNA forms, widths of DNA grooves, GC content, specificity measures of direct and indirect readouts, and buried surface area at the complex interface. The...

متن کاملStructural Descriptors of Protein-Protein Binding Sites
Structural bioinformatics provides new tools for investigating protein-protein interactions at the molecular level. We present two types of structural descriptors for efficiently representing and comparing protein-protein binding sites and surface patches. The descriptors are based on distributions of distances between five types of functional atoms, thereby capturing the spatial arrangement of...
متن کاملClassification of protein complexes based on docking difficulty.
Based on the results of several groups using different docking methods, the key properties that determine the expected success rate in protein-protein docking calculations are measures of conformational change, interface area, and hydrophobicity. A classification of protein complexes in terms of these measures provides a prediction of docking difficulty. This classification is used to study the...
متن کامل3D Complex: A Structural Classification of Protein Complexes
Most of the proteins in a cell assemble into complexes to carry out their function. It is therefore crucial to understand the physicochemical properties as well as the evolution of interactions between proteins. The Protein Data Bank represents an important source of information for such studies, because more than half of the structures are homo- or heteromeric protein complexes. Here we propos...
