Dynamical structural distributions in proteins
A moment analysis of the self-intermediate scattering function is used to reconstruct the distribution of structural displacements in the small protein myoglobin as a function of time, temperature and environment. Model-independent information is obtained on mean squared displacements and the Gauss-deviation. Two types of molecular motions were identified: rotational jumps of side chains and sm...
متن کاملA data-mining approach for multiple structural alignment of proteins
Comparing the 3D structures of proteins is an important but computationally hard problem in bioinformatics. In this paper, we propose studying the problem when much less information or assumptions are available. We model the structural alignment of proteins as a combinatorial problem. In the problem, each protein is simply a set of points in the 3D space, without sequence order information, and...
متن کاملStructural homology guided alignment of cysteine rich proteins
BACKGROUND Cysteine rich protein families are notoriously difficult to align due to low sequence identity and frequent insertions and deletions. RESULTS Here we present an alignment method that ensures homologous cysteines align by assigning a unique 10 amino acid barcode to those identified as structurally homologous by the DALI webserver. The free inter-cysteine regions of the barcoded sequ...
متن کاملSingle-image diffusion coefficient measurements of proteins in free solution.
Diffusion coefficient measurements are important for many biological and material investigations, such as studies of particle dynamics and kinetics, and size determinations. Among current measurement methods, single particle tracking (SPT) offers the unique ability to simultaneously obtain location and diffusion information about a molecule while using only femtomoles of sample. However, the te...
متن کاملDynamical phase coexistence: a simple solution to the "savanna problem".
We introduce the concept of dynamical phase coexistence to provide a simple solution for a long-standing problem in theoretical ecology, the so-called "savanna problem". The challenge is to understand why in savanna ecosystems trees and grasses coexist in a robust way with large spatiotemporal variability. We propose a simple model, a variant of the contact process (CP), which includes two key ...
