Correlations of Amino Acids with Secondary Structure Types: Connection with Amino Acid Structure
The correlations of primary and secondary structures were analyzed using proteins with known structure from Protein Data Bank. The correlation values of amino acid type and the eight secondary structure types at distant position were calculated for distances between -25 and 25. Shapes of the diagrams indicate that amino acids polarity and capability for hydrogen bonding have influence on the se...
متن کاملProtein primary structure: Amino acids
Numerous biological functions are performed by proteins. These include oxygen transport and storage (hemoglobin and myoglobin, respectively), muscle functioning (titin), growth of bones (collagen), cell adhesion (fibronectin) etc. The diversity in functions suggests a wide diversity in protein structures. Indeed, proteins show remarkable variation in size and shape. The largest protein, titin, ...
متن کاملAmino acid encoding schemes from protein structure alignments: multi-dimensional vectors to describe residue types.
Bioinformatic software has used various numerical encoding schemes to describe amino acid sequences. Orthogonal encoding, employing 20 numbers to describe the amino acid type of one protein residue, is often used with artificial neural network (ANN) models. However, this can increase the model complexity, thus leading to difficulty in implementation and poor performance. Here, we use ANNs to de...
متن کاملAN INDEX REPRESENTING STRUCTURE-CATABOLIC FATE RELATIONSHIPS OF AMINO ACIDS
Based on the Randic suggestion of the resolution of a structure into shape, size, and function an index representing structure-catabolic fate relationships of amino acids is constructed. The index obtained by multiplying three factors; (nb2 + nr), nc and M; representing shape, size and function respectively, where nb2 = number of double bonds, nr = number of rings, nc = number of carbon atoms, ...
متن کاملGenetic Code: Four Diversity Types of Protein Amino Acids
This paper presents, for the first time, four diversity types of protein amino acids. The first type includes two amino acids (G, P), both without standard hydrocarbon side chains; the second one four amino acids, as two pairs [(A, L), (V, I)], all with standard hydrocarbon side chains; the third type comprises the six amino acids, as three pairs [(F, Y), (H, W), (C, M)], two aromatic, two hete...
