Mining Residue Contacts in Proteins
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we develop data mining techniques to predict 3D contact potentials among protein residues (or amino acids) based on the hierarchical nucleationpropagation model of protein folding. We apply a hybrid approach, using a Hidden Markov Model to extract folding initiation sites, and then apply association mining to discover contact potentials. The new hybrid approach achieves accuracy results better than those reported previously.

In this paper, the hydrogen bonding (HB) effects on the NMR chemical shifts of selected atoms in serineand serine-nH2O complexes (from one to ten water molecules) have been investigated with quantummechanical calculations of the 15N and 13C tensors. Interaction with water molecules causes importantchanges in geometry and electronic structure of serine.For the compound studied, the most importan...

متن کاملNon-local residue-residue contacts in proteins are more conserved than local ones
Non-covalent residue-residue contacts drive the folding of proteins and stabilize them. They may be local-i.e. involve residues that are close in sequence, or non-local. It has been suggested that, in most proteins, local contacts drive protein folding by providing crucial constraints of the conformational space, thus allowing proteins to fold. We compared residues that are involved in local co...
متن کاملMining Protein Contact Maps
The 3D conformation of a protein may be compactly represented in a symmetrical, square, boolean matrix of pairwise, inter-residue contacts, or “contact map”. The contact map provides a host of useful information about the protein’s structure. In this paper we describe how data mining can be used to extract valuable information from contact maps. For example, clusters of contacts represent certa...
متن کاملProtein-protein docking predictions for the CAPRI experiment.
We predicted structures for all seven targets in the CAPRI experiment using a new method in development at the time of the challenge. The technique includes a low-resolution rigid body Monte Carlo search followed by high-resolution refinement with side-chain conformational changes and rigid body minimization. Decoys (approximately 10(6) per target) were discriminated using a scoring function in...
