Parallel Computing in Protein Structure Topology Determination
The knowledge of 3-dimensional virus structures is essential in understanding the mechanism of viral pathogenesis. It also provides insights to the stabilizing mechanisms of a nano-sized particle, since many viruses are less than 100 nanometers in diameter. This paper reports the results towards the development of a scalable parallel code for structural prediction of virus particles through ab ...
متن کاملFragon: rapid high-resolution structure determination from ideal protein fragments.
Correctly positioning ideal protein fragments by molecular replacement presents an attractive method for obtaining preliminary phases when no template structure for molecular replacement is available. This has been exploited in several existing pipelines. This paper presents a new pipeline, named Fragon, in which fragments (ideal α-helices or β-strands) are placed using Phaser and the phases ca...
متن کاملProtein structure determination using metagenome sequence data.
Despite decades of work by structural biologists, there are still ~5200 protein families with unknown structure outside the range of comparative modeling. We show that Rosetta structure prediction guided by residue-residue contacts inferred from evolutionary information can accurately model proteins that belong to large families and that metagenome sequence data more than triple the number of p...
متن کاملProtein Structure Determination Using Chemical Shifts
Acknowledgements This thesis represents the work I have carried out as a PhD student under the supervision of Professor Jan H. Jensen in his group of Biocomputational Chemistry. Thank you to all who have supported me during my work at the third floor of C-building at the H.C. Ørsteds Institute. I would especially like to thank the following people: • Thank you to my supervisor, Jan " Yoda " Jen...
متن کاملAutomated protein crystal structure determination using ELVES.
Efficient determination of protein crystal structures requires automated x-ray data analysis. Here, we describe the expert system ELVES and its use to determine automatically the structure of a 12-kDa protein. Multiwavelength anomalous diffraction analysis of a selenomethionyl derivative was used to image the Asn-16-Ala variant of the GCN4 leucine zipper. In contrast to the parallel, dimeric co...
