On reduced amino acid alphabets for phylogenetic inference.
We investigate the use of Markov models of evolution for reduced amino acid alphabets or bins of amino acids. The use of reduced amino acid alphabets can ameliorate effects of model misspecification and saturation. We present algorithms for 2 different ways of automating the construction of bins: minimizing criteria based on properties of rate matrices and minimizing criteria based on propertie...
متن کاملUsing pseudo amino acid composition to predict protein structural classes: Approached with complexity measure factor
The structural class is an important feature widely used to characterize the overall folding type of a protein. How to improve the prediction quality for protein structural classification by effectively incorporating the sequence-order effects is an important and challenging problem. Based on the concept of the pseudo amino acid composition [Chou, K. C. Proteins Struct Funct Genet 2001, 43, 246...
متن کاملUsing Amino Acid Correlation and Community Detection Algorithms to Identify Functional Determinants in Protein Families
Correlated mutation analysis has a long history of interesting applications, mostly in the detection of contact pairs in protein structures. Based on previous observations that, if properly assessed, amino acid correlation data can also provide insights about functional sub-classes in a protein family, we provide a complete framework devoted to this purpose. An amino acid specific correlation m...
متن کاملReduced amino acid alphabets exhibit an improved sensitivity and selectivity in fold assignment
MOTIVATION Many proteins with vastly dissimilar sequences are found to share a common fold, as evidenced in the wealth of structures now available in the Protein Data Bank. One idea that has found success in various applications is the concept of a reduced amino acid alphabet, wherein similar amino acids are clustered together. Given the structural similarity exhibited by many apparently dissim...
متن کاملIdentification of Amino Acid Latent Periodicity within 94 Protein Families
Here, we have applied information decomposition, cyclic profile alignment, and noise decomposition techniques to search for latent repeats within protein families of various functions. We have identified 94 protein families with a family-specific periodicity. In each case, the periodic element was found in greater than 70% of family members. Latent periodicity profiles with specific length and ...
