Comparative protein structure modeling by combining multiple templates and optimizing sequence-to-structure alignments
MOTIVATION Two major bottlenecks in advancing comparative protein structure modeling are the efficient combination of multiple template structures and the generation of a correct input target-template alignment. RESULTS A novel method, Multiple Mapping Method with Multiple Templates (M4T) is introduced that implements an algorithm to automatically select and combine Multiple Template structur...
متن کاملComparative Visualization of Protein Structure-Sequence Alignments
Protein fold recognition (threading) involves the prediction of a protein’s three-dimensional shape based on its similarity to a protein whose structure is known. Fold predictions are low resolution; no effort is made to rotate the protein’s component amino acid side chains into their correct spatial orientations. Rather, the goal is to recognize the protein family member that most closely rese...
متن کاملCombining sequence and structure information in protein alignments
For distantly related proteins, alignmentsbased on structural information are more reliable than traditional sequence alignments. However, when structural comparison leaves some ambiguity in alignment, sequence information can provide valuable additional information to discriminate between multiple alternatives. In this paper we present a Bayesianmodel that incorporates sequence information int...
متن کاملPROMALS3D: a tool for multiple protein sequence and structure alignments
Although multiple sequence alignments (MSAs) are essential for a wide range of applications from structure modeling to prediction of functional sites, construction of accurate MSAs for distantly related proteins remains a largely unsolved problem. The rapidly increasing database of spatial structures is a valuable source to improve alignment quality. We explore the use of 3D structural informat...
متن کامل3DCoffee: combining protein sequences and structures within multiple sequence alignments.
Most bioinformatics analyses require the assembly of a multiple sequence alignment. It has long been suspected that structural information can help to improve the quality of these alignments, yet the effect of combining sequences and structures has not been evaluated systematically. We developed 3DCoffee, a novel method for combining protein sequences and structures in order to generate high-qu...
