Persistent homology analysis of protein structure, flexibility, and folding.
Proteins are the most important biomolecules for living organisms. The understanding of protein structure, function, dynamics, and transport is one of the most challenging tasks in biological science. In the present work, persistent homology is, for the first time, introduced for extracting molecular topological fingerprints (MTFs) based on the persistence of molecular topological invariants. M...
متن کاملAnalysis and prediction of protein folding energy changes upon mutation by element specific persistent homology
Motivation Site directed mutagenesis is widely used to understand the structure and function of biomolecules. Computational prediction of mutation impacts on protein stability offers a fast, economical and potentially accurate alternative to laboratory mutagenesis. Most existing methods rely on geometric descriptions, this work introduces a topology based approach to provide an entirely new rep...
متن کاملPersistent Homology Analysis of RNA
Topological data analysis hasbeen recentlyused to extractmeaningful information frombiomolecules. Here we introduce the application of persistent homology, a topological data analysis tool, for computing persistent features (loops) of the RNA folding space. The scaffold of the RNA folding space is a complex graph from which the global features are extracted by completing the graph to a simplici...
متن کاملComputational Analysis of Protein Structure Prediction and Folding
Protein structure prediction (PSP) problem is a computationally challenging problem. To predict the protein structure from sequence information, is of massive significance and also the properties of proteins are critically determined by their structures. All information is necessary to fold a protein to its native structure is contained in its amino-acid sequence. The native structure of the pr...
متن کاملProtein Stability, Folding, Disaggregation and Etiology of Conformational Malfunctions
Estimation of protein stability is important for many reasons: first providing an understanding of the basic thermodynamics of the process of folding, protein engineering, and protein stability plays important role in biotechnology especially in food and protein drug design. Today, proteins are used in many branches, including industrial processes, pharmaceutical industry, and medical fields. A...
