Exact Sequence Analysis for Three-Dimensional HP Lattice Proteins
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have exactly enumerated all sequences and conformations of HP proteins with chains of up to 19 monomers on the simple cubic lattice. For two variants of the hydrophobic-polar (HP) model, where only two types of monomers are distinguished, we determined and statistically analyzed designing sequences, i.e., sequences that have a non-degenerate ground state. Furthermore we were interested in characteristic thermodynamic properties of HP proteins with designing sequences. In order to be able to perform these exact studies, we applied an efficient enumeration method based on contact sets.

متن کاملProtein Folding in the Generalized Hydrophobic-Polar Model on the Triangular Lattice
We consider the problem of determining the three-dimensional folding of a protein given its one-dimensional amino acid sequence. The model we use is based on the Hydrophobic-Polar (HP) model [2] on cubic lattices in which the goal is to find the fold with the maximum number of contacts between non-covalently linked hydrophobic amino acids. Hart and Istrail [5] give a 3/8 approximation algorithm...
متن کاملExact enumeration of three-dimensional lattice proteins
We present an algorithm for the exhaustive enumeration of all monomer sequences and conformations of short lattice proteins as described by the hydrophobic–polar (HP) model. The algorithm is used for an exact identification of all designing sequences of HP proteins consisting of up to 19 monomers whose conformations are represented by interacting self–avoiding walks on the simple cubic lattice....
متن کاملA topological perspective into the sequence and conformational space of proteins
The precise sequence of aminoacids plays a central role in the tertiary structure of proteins and their functional properties. The Hydrophobic-Polar lattice models have provided valuable insights regarding the energy landscape. We demonstrate here the isomorphism between the protein sequences and designable structures for two and three dimensional lattice proteins of very long aminoacid chains ...
متن کاملFrom HP Lattice Models to Real Proteins: Coordination Number Prediction Using Learning Classifier Systems
Prediction of the coordination number (CN) of residues in proteins based solely on protein sequence has recently received renewed attention. At the same time, simplified protein models such as the HP model have been used to understand protein folding and protein structure prediction. These models represent the sequence of a protein using two residue types: hydrophobic and polar, and restrict th...
