Structure Prediction of Membrane Proteins
There is a large gap between the number of membrane protein (MP) sequences and that of their decoded 3D structures, especially high-resolution structures, due to difficulties in crystal preparation of MPs. However, detailed knowledge of the 3D structure is required for the fundamental understanding of the function of an MP and the interactions between the protein and its inhibitors or activator...
متن کاملMultipass membrane protein structure prediction using Rosetta.
We describe the adaptation of the Rosetta de novo structure prediction method for prediction of helical transmembrane protein structures. The membrane environment is modeled by embedding the protein chain into a model membrane represented by parallel planes defining hydrophobic, interface, and polar membrane layers for each energy evaluation. The optimal embedding is determined by maximizing th...
متن کاملActive Learning for Membrane Protein Structure Prediction
Background: About 30% of genes code for membrane proteins, which are involved in a wide variety of crucial biological functions. Despite their importance, experimentally determined structures correspond to only about 1.7% of protein structures deposited in the Protein Data Bank due to the difficulty in crystallizing membrane proteins. Algorithms that can identify proteins whose high-resolution ...
متن کاملMembrane protein structure: prediction versus reality.
Since high-resolution structural data are still scarce, different kinds of theoretical structure prediction algorithms are of major importance in membrane protein biochemistry. But how well do the current prediction methods perform? Which structural features can be predicted and which cannot? And what can we expect in the next few years?
متن کاملGenome-wide Membrane Protein Structure Prediction
Transmembrane proteins allow cells to extensively communicate with the external world in a very accurate and specific way. They form principal nodes in several signaling pathways and attract large interest in therapeutic intervention, as the majority pharmaceutical compounds target membrane proteins. Thus, according to the current genome annotation methods, a detailed structural/functional char...
