Prediction of binding hot spot residues by using structural and evolutionary parameters
In this work, we present a method for predicting hot spot residues by using a set of structural and evolutionary parameters. Unlike previous studies, we use a set of parameters which do not depend on the structure of the protein in complex, so that the predictor can also be used when the interface region is unknown. Despite the fact that no information concerning proteins in complex is used for...
متن کاملRelationship between Hot Spot Residues and Ligand Binding Hot Spots in Protein-Protein Interfaces
In the context of protein-protein interactions, the term "hot spot" refers to a residue or cluster of residues that makes a major contribution to the binding free energy, as determined by alanine scanning mutagenesis. In contrast, in pharmaceutical research, a hot spot is a site on a target protein that has high propensity for ligand binding and hence is potentially important for drug discovery...
متن کاملSVM based prediction of RNA-binding proteins using binding residues and evolutionary information.
RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) play crucial role in transcription and gene-regulation. This paper describes a support vector machine (SVM) based method for discriminating and classifying RNA-binding and non-binding proteins using sequence features. With the threshold of 30% interacting residues, RNA-binding amino acid prediction method PPRINT achieved the Matthews correlation coefficient (MCC) of ...
متن کاملPrediction and analysis of nucleotide-binding residues using sequence and sequence-derived structural descriptors
MOTIVATION Nucleotides are multifunctional molecules that are essential for numerous biological processes. They serve as sources for chemical energy, participate in the cellular signaling and they are involved in the enzymatic reactions. The knowledge of the nucleotide-protein interactions helps with annotation of protein functions and finds applications in drug design. RESULTS We propose a n...
