PROCARB: A Database of Known and Modelled Carbohydrate-Binding Protein Structures with Sequence-Based Prediction Tools
Understanding of the three-dimensional structures of proteins that interact with carbohydrates covalently (glycoproteins) as well as noncovalently (protein-carbohydrate complexes) is essential to many biological processes and plays a significant role in normal and disease-associated functions. It is important to have a central repository of knowledge available about these protein-carbohydrate c...
متن کاملPrediction of zinc-binding sites in proteins from sequence
MOTIVATION Motivated by the abundance, importance and unique functionality of zinc, both biologically and physiologically, we have developed an improved method for the prediction of zinc-binding sites in proteins from their amino acid sequences. RESULTS By combining support vector machine (SVM) and homology-based predictions, our method predicts zinc-binding Cys, His, Asp and Glu with 75% pre...
متن کاملSequence-based prediction of protein-binding sites in DNA: Comparative study of two SVM models
As many structures of protein-DNA complexes have been known in the past years, several computational methods have been developed to predict DNA-binding sites in proteins. However, its inverse problem (i.e., predicting protein-binding sites in DNA) has received much less attention. One of the reasons is that the differences between the interaction propensities of nucleotides are much smaller tha...
متن کاملBinding-sites Prediction Assisting Protein-protein Docking.
Most biological actions of proteins, including their ability to interact with one another, involve some specific parts of their three-dimensional structure, called binding sites. These have evolved for their ability to bind other molecules effectively and are often conserved in different proteins. Identifying protein-protein binding sites in a protein that is known to interact with other protei...
متن کاملPrediction of transition metal-binding sites from apo protein structures.
Metal ions are crucial for protein function. They participate in enzyme catalysis, play regulatory roles, and help maintain protein structure. Current tools for predicting metal-protein interactions are based on proteins crystallized with their metal ions present (holo forms). However, a majority of resolved structures are free of metal ions (apo forms). Moreover, metal binding is a dynamic pro...
