TALI: Protein Structure Alignment Using Backbone Torsion Angles
This article introduces a novel protein structure alignment method (named TALI) based on protein backbone torsion angle instead of the more traditional distance matrix. Representing protein structure by a serial backbone torsion angles (φ, ψ), protein structure have a simple mapping relationship to protein sequence. Thus, TALI can naturally incorporate sequence information and sequence analysis...
متن کاملFluctuations of backbone torsion angles obtained from NMR-determined structures and their prediction.
Protein molecules exhibit varying degrees of flexibility throughout their three-dimensional structures. Protein structural flexibility is often characterized by fluctuations in the Cartesian coordinate space. On the other hand, the protein backbone can be mostly defined by two torsion angles ϕ and ψ only. We introduce a new flexibility descriptor, backbone torsion-angle fluctuation derived from...
متن کاملSPINE X: Improving protein secondary structure prediction by multistep learning coupled with prediction of solvent accessible surface area and backbone torsion angles
Accurate prediction of protein secondary structure is essential for accurate sequence alignment, three-dimensional structure modeling, and function prediction. The accuracy of ab initio secondary structure prediction from sequence, however, has only increased from around 77 to 80% over the past decade. Here, we developed a multistep neural-network algorithm by coupling secondary structure predi...
متن کاملImproving prediction of secondary structure, local backbone angles, and solvent accessible surface area of proteins by iterative deep learning
Direct prediction of protein structure from sequence is a challenging problem. An effective approach is to break it up into independent sub-problems. These sub-problems such as prediction of protein secondary structure can then be solved independently. In a previous study, we found that an iterative use of predicted secondary structure and backbone torsion angles can further improve secondary s...
متن کاملReal-value prediction of backbone torsion angles.
The backbone structure of a protein is largely determined by the phi and psi torsion angles. Thus, knowing these angles, even if approximately, will be very useful for protein-structure prediction. However, in a previous work, a sequence-based, real-value prediction of psi angle could only achieve a mean absolute error of 54 degrees (83 degrees, 35 degrees, 33 degrees for coil, strand, and heli...
