Evolutionary Protein Contact Maps Prediction
ثبت نشده
چکیده
In this study, a novel residue-residue contacts prediction approach based on evolutionary computation is presented. The prediction is based on four amino acids properties. In particular, we consider the hydrophobicity, the polarity, the charge and size of residues of amino acids. The prediction model consists of a set of rules that identifies contacts between amino acids. Results obtained confirm the validity of the proposal.

Hidden conformations in protein structures
MOTIVATION Prediction of interactions between protein residues (contact map prediction) can facilitate various aspects of 3D structure modeling. However, the accuracy of ab initio contact prediction is still limited. As structural genomics initiatives move ahead, solved structures of homologous proteins can be used as multiple templates to improve contact prediction of the major conformation of...
متن کاملPrediction of contact maps by GIOHMMs and recurrent neural networks using lateral propagation from all four cardinal corners
MOTIVATION Accurate prediction of protein contact maps is an important step in computational structural proteomics. Because contact maps provide a translation and rotation invariant topological representation of a protein, they can be used as a fundamental intermediary step in protein structure prediction. RESULTS We develop a new set of flexible machine learning architectures for the predict...
متن کاملMining of protein contact maps for protein fold prediction
Contact maps have been used in ab initio methods for the problem of protein structure prediction problem. Secondary structures and contacts made by the residues are clearly visible in the contact maps where helices are seen as thick bands and the beta sheets are seen as orthogonal to the diagonal. This paper explores the idea of extracting rules from contact maps to represent “protein fold” inf...
متن کاملStriped sheets and protein contact prediction
MOTIVATION Current approaches to contact map prediction in proteins have focused on amino acid conservation and patterns of mutation at sequentially distant positions. This sequence information is poorly understood and very little progress has been made in this area during recent years. RESULTS In this study, an observation of 'striped' sequence patterns across beta-sheets prompted the develo...
