TOUCHSTONE II: a new approach to ab initio protein structure prediction.
We have developed a new combined approach for ab initio protein structure prediction. The protein conformation is described as a lattice chain connecting C(alpha) atoms, with attached C(beta) atoms and side-chain centers of mass. The model force field includes various short-range and long-range knowledge-based potentials derived from a statistical analysis of the regularities of protein structu...
متن کاملAb Initio Protein Structure Prediction
Predicting protein 3D structures from the amino acid sequence still remains as an unsolved problem after five decades of efforts. If the target protein has a homologue already solved, the task is relatively easy and high-resolution models can be built by copying the framework of the solved structure. However, such a modelling procedure does not help answer the question of how and why a protein ...
متن کاملAb initio protein structure prediction using a combined hierarchical approach.
As part of the third Critical Assessment of Structure Prediction meeting (CASP3), we predict the three-dimensional structures for 13 proteins using a hierarchical approach. First, all possible compact conformations of a protein sequence are enumerated using a highly simplified tetrahedral lattice model. We select a large subset of these conformations using a lattice-based scoring function and b...
متن کاملTOUCHSTONE: an ab initio protein structure prediction method that uses threading-based tertiary restraints.
The successful prediction of protein structure from amino acid sequence requires two features: an efficient conformational search algorithm and an energy function with a global minimum in the native state. As a step toward addressing both issues, a threading-based method of secondary and tertiary restraint prediction has been developed and applied to ab initio folding. Such restraints are deriv...
متن کاملTOUCHSTONE: a unified approach to protein structure prediction.
We have applied the TOUCHSTONE structure prediction algorithm that spans the range from homology modeling to ab initio folding to all protein targets in CASP5. Using our threading algorithm PROSPECTOR that does not utilize input from metaservers, one threads against a representative set of PDB templates. If a template is significantly hit, Generalized Comparative Modeling designed to span the r...
