FunFOLDQA: A Quality Assessment Tool for Protein-Ligand Binding Site Residue Predictions
The estimation of prediction quality is important because without quality measures, it is difficult to determine the usefulness of a prediction. Currently, methods for ligand binding site residue predictions are assessed in the function prediction category of the biennial Critical Assessment of Techniques for Protein Structure Prediction (CASP) experiment, utilizing the Matthews Correlation Coe...
متن کاملLigand-binding Residue Prediction
In this chapter, we explore means for predicting protein residues that interact with small molecules. We will motivate the problem by describing potential uses for such information and proceed to discuss methods advanced for prediction. We describe our sequence-based approach and contrast it with another current methodwhich relies on predicted protein structure to help identify ligand-binding r...
متن کاملProtein flexibility upon ligand binding: Docking predictions and statistical analysis
Acknowledgements I would like to start by thanking Prof. Meir Edelman and Dr. Vladimir Sobolev for their guidance and the high level of scientific independence they trusted in me. A different posture would not have permitted my full development as a free thinker. I would like to thank Professors Ron Unger and Amnon Horovitz for their valuable comments throughout this work as assigned readers of...
متن کاملRapid decomposition and visualisation of protein-ligand binding free energies by residue and by water.
Recent advances in computational hardware, software and algorithms enable simulations of protein-ligand complexes to achieve timescales during which complete ligand binding and unbinding pathways can be observed. While observation of such events can promote understanding of binding and unbinding pathways, it does not alone provide information about the molecular drivers for protein-ligand assoc...
متن کاملResidue-level prediction of DNA-binding sites and its application on DNA-binding protein predictions.
Protein-DNA interactions are crucial to many cellular activities such as expression-control and DNA-repair. These interactions between amino acids and nucleotides are highly specific and any aberrance at the binding site can render the interaction completely incompetent. In this study, we have three aims focusing on DNA-binding residues on the protein surface: to develop an automated approach f...
