Niche Genetic Algorithms are better than traditional Genetic Algorithms for Protein Folding
Here we demonstrate that Niche Genetic Algorithms (NGA) are better at computing protein folding than traditional Genetic Algorithms (GA). de novo Previous research has shown that proteins can fold into their active forms in a limited number of ways; however, predicting how a set of amino acids will fold starting from the primary structure is still a mystery. GAs have a unique ability to solve t...
متن کاملGenetic algorithms and protein folding.
Evolutionary Computation is, like neural networks, an example par excellence for an information processing paradigm that was originally developed and exhibited by nature and later discovered by man who subsequently transformed the general principle into computational algorithms to be put to work on computers. Nature makes in an impressive way use of the principle of genetic heritage and evoluti...
متن کاملAre Multiple Runs of Genetic Algorithms Better than One?
There are conflicting reports over whether multiple independent runs of genetic algorithms (GAs) with small populations can reach solutions of higher quality or can find acceptable solutions faster than a single run with a large population. This paper investigates this question analytically using two approaches. First, the analysis assumes that there is a certain fixed amount of computational r...
متن کاملGenetic algorithms for protein folding simulations.
Genetic algorithms methods utilize the same optimization procedures as natural genetic evolution, in which a population is gradually improved by selection. We have developed a genetic algorithm search procedure suitable for use in protein folding simulations. A population of conformations of the polypeptide chain is maintained, and conformations are changed by mutation, in the form of conventio...
متن کاملProtein Folding Prediction with Genetic Algorithms
Hydrophobic-hydrophilic model (HP model) is one of the most simplified and popular protein folding models. This model considers the hydrophobichydrophobic interactions of protein structures, but the results of prediction are not encouraged enough. Therefore, we suggest that some other features should be considered, such as SSEs, charges, and disulfide bonds. In this paper we propose a genetic a...
