Macromolecular structures without crystals.
E lectron microscopy has many attractive capabilities as a tool for experimentally visualizing the structures of biological cells and macromolecules. Particles can be imaged while freely suspended in biochemically ‘‘native’’ buffers, and electrons can be focused to resolutions exceeding anything that a biochemist’s heart might desire. To be sure, biological electron microscopy also is subject t...
متن کاملDeposition of macromolecular structures.
Macromolecular structures are being determined at an increasing rate, and are of interest to a wide diversity of researchers. Depositing a macromolecular structure with the Protein Data Bank makes it readily available to the community. Accuracy, consistency and machine-readability of the data are essential, as are clear indications of quality, and sufficient information to allow non-experimenta...
متن کاملFractal Dimensions of Macromolecular Structures
Quantifying the properties of macromolecules is a prerequisite for understanding their roles in biochemical processes. One of the less-explored geometric features of macromolecules is molecular surface irregularity, or 'roughness', which can be measured in terms of fractal dimension (D). In this study, we demonstrate that surface roughness correlates with ligand binding potential. We quantified...
متن کاملSubstructure search procedures for macromolecular structures.
This paper accompanies a lecture given at the 2003 CCP4 Study Weekend on experimental phasing. The first part is an overview of the fundamentals of Patterson methods and direct methods with the audience of the CCP4 Study Weekend in mind. In the second part, a new hybrid substructure search is outlined.
متن کاملCompressed representations of macromolecular structures and properties.
We introduce a new and unified, compressed volumetric representation for macromolecular structures at varying feature resolutions, as well as for many computed associated properties. Important caveats of this compressed representation are fast random data access and decompression operations. Many computational tasks for manipulating large structures, including those requiring interactivity such...
