Automated Structure Refinement for a Protein Heterodimer Complex Using Limited EPR Spectroscopic Data and a Rigid-Body Docking Algorithm: A Three-Dimensional Model for an Ankyrin-CDB3 Complex

چکیده
We report here specialized functions incorporated recently in the rigid-body docking software toolkit TagDock to utilize electron paramagnetic resonance derived (EPR-derived) interresidue distance measurements and spin-label accessibility data. The TagDock package extensions include a custom methanethiosulfonate spin label rotamer library to enable explicit, all-atom spin-label side-chain modeling and scripts to evaluate spin-label surface accessibility. These software enhancements enable us to better utilize the biophysical data routinely available from various spin-labeling experiments. To illustrate the power and utility of these tools, we report the refinement of an ankyrin:CDB3 complex model that exhibits much improved agreement with the EPR distance measurements, compared to model structures published previously.
