SAS-Pro: Simultaneous Residue Assignment and Structure Superposition for Protein Structure Alignment
Protein structure alignment is the problem of determining an assignment between the amino-acid residues of two given proteins in a way that maximizes a measure of similarity between the two superimposed protein structures. By identifying geometric similarities, structure alignment algorithms provide critical insights into protein functional similarities. Existing structure alignment tools adopt...
متن کاملMultiple protein sequence alignment from tertiary structure comparison: assignment of global and residue confidence levels.
An algorithm is presented for the accurate and rapid generation of multiple protein sequence alignments from tertiary structure comparisons. A preliminary multiple sequence alignment is performed using sequence information, which then determines an initial superposition of the structures. A structure comparison algorithm is applied to all pairs of proteins in the superimposed set and a similari...
متن کاملProtein Structure Alignment Protein Structure Alignment
If we know the structures of the proteins A and B, and the function of protein A, then if we can detect structural similarity between A and B by producing an alignment between them, it can help us infer functionality of B. The problem of protein structure alignment is essentially similar to the sequence alignment; the fact that we have to do structural alignment in 3-d adds to the complexity of...
متن کاملSimultaneous Alignment and Structure Prediction of RNAs
Comparative RNA sequence analyses have contributed remarkably accurate predictions. The recent determination of the 30S and 50S ribosomal subunits brought more supporting evidence. Several inference tools are combining free-energy minimisation and comparative analysis to improve the quality of secondary structure predictions. Using many input sequences should improve the accuracy, reduce the li...
متن کاملCAB-Align: A Flexible Protein Structure Alignment Method Based on the Residue-Residue Contact Area
Proteins are flexible, and this flexibility has an essential functional role. Flexibility can be observed in loop regions, rearrangements between secondary structure elements, and conformational changes between entire domains. However, most protein structure alignment methods treat protein structures as rigid bodies. Thus, these methods fail to identify the equivalences of residue pairs in regi...
