Flexible Structural Neighborhood—a database of protein structural similarities and alignments
Protein structures are flexible, changing their shapes not only upon substrate binding, but also during evolution as a collective effect of mutations, deletions and insertions. A new generation of protein structure comparison algorithms allows for such flexibility; they go beyond identifying the largest common part between two proteins and find hinge regions and patterns of flexibility in prote...
متن کاملDoSA: Database of Structural Alignments
Protein structure alignment is a crucial step in protein structure-function analysis. Despite the advances in protein structure alignment algorithms, some of the local conformationally similar regions are mislabeled as structurally variable regions (SVRs). These regions are not well superimposed because of differences in their spatial orientations. The Database of Structural Alignments (DoSA) a...
متن کاملSAD - a normalized structural alignment database: improving sequence-structure alignments
MOTIVATION We present a structural alignment database that is specifically targeted for use in derivation and optimization of sequence-structure alignment algorithms for homology modeling. We have paid attention to ensure that fold-space is properly sampled, that the structures involved in alignments are of significant resolution (better than 2.5 A) and the alignments are accurate and reliable....
متن کاملStructural Similarities between M Protein and Tropomyosin
M proteins of the group A streptococcus, despite their well-recognized immunological variations, have the unique capacity of maintaining a common antiphagocytic function for the organism. Antibodies to M proteins, however, are capable of neutralizing the antiphagocytic activity of these molecules (1-3). Although, immunological cross-reactions between different M types have been observed (4-6), ...
