Protein family clustering for structural genomics.
A major goal of structural genomics is the provision of a structural template for a large fraction of protein domains. The magnitude of this task depends on the number and nature of protein sequence families. With a large number of bacterial genomes now fully sequenced, it is possible to obtain improved estimates of the number and diversity of families in that kingdom. We have used an automated...
متن کاملComprehensive genome analysis of 203 genomes provides structural genomics with new insights into protein family space
We present an analysis of 203 completed genomes in the Gene3D resource (including 17 eukaryotes), which demonstrates that the number of protein families is continually expanding over time and that singleton-sequences appear to be an intrinsic part of the genomes. A significant proportion of the proteomes can be assigned to fewer than 6000 well-characterized domain families with the remaining do...
متن کاملProtein Structural Motif Prediction in Multidimensional ø-Psi Space Leads to Improved Secondary Structure Prediction
A significant step towards establishing the structure and function of a protein is the prediction of the local conformation of the polypeptide chain. In this article, we present systems for the prediction of three new alphabets of local structural motifs. The motifs are built by applying multidimensional scaling (MDS) and clustering to pair-wise angular distances for multiple φ-ψ angle values c...
متن کاملProtein evolution and structural genomics
The genomic data available to computational biologists represents the product of the complex processes of evolution. In particular, the forces of mutation, duplication, and selection have acted to sculpt modern protein sequence and structure in the context of changing functional requirements. Just as crystallographers are able to determine protein structures through an analysis of X-ray diffrac...
متن کاملTarget space for structural genomics revisited
MOTIVATION Structural genomics eventually aims at determining structures for all proteins. However, in the beginning experimentalists are likely to focus on globular proteins to achieve a rapid basic coverage of protein sequence space. How many proteins will structural genomics have to target? How many proteins will be excluded since we already have structural information for these or since the...
