Homology modeling and consensus protein disorder prediction of human filamin

Homology modeling and consensus protein disorder prediction of human filamin

Filamins are dimeric actin-binding proteins participating in the organization of the actin-based cytoskeleton. Their modular domain organization is made up of an N-terminal actin-binding domain composed of two CH domains followed by flexible rod regions that consist of 24 Ig-like domains. Homology modeling was used to model human filamin using Modeller 9v5. The resulting model assessed by Verif...

Consensus alignment for reliable framework prediction in homology modeling

MOTIVATION Even the best sequence alignment methods frequently fail to correctly identify the framework regions for which backbones can be copied from the template into the target structure. Since the underprediction and, more significantly, the overprediction of these regions reduces the quality of the final model, it is of prime importance to attain as much as possible of the true structural ...

homology modeling and conformational epitope prediction of envelope protein of alkhumra haemorrhagic fever virus

background : the aim of this study was to generate in silico 3d-structure of the envelope protein of ahfv using homology modeling method to further predict its conformational epitopes and help other studies to investigate its structural features using the model. methods : a 3d-structure prediction was developed for the envelope protein of alkhumra haemorrhagic fever virus (ahfv), an emerging ti...

Consensus Prediction of Protein Conformational Disorder from Amino Acidic Sequence

Predictions of protein conformational disorder are important in structural biology since they can allow the elimination of protein constructs, the three-dimensional structure of which cannot be determined since they are natively unfolded. Here a new procedure is presented that allows one to predict with high accuracy disordered residues on the basis of protein sequences. It makes use of twelve ...
