Protein Structure Prediction with Visuospatial Analogy
نویسندگان
چکیده
We show that visio-spatial representations and reasoning techniques can be used as a similarity metric for analogical protein structure prediction. Our system retrieves pairs of α-helices based on contact map similarity, then transfers and adapts the structure information to an unknown helix pair, showing that similar protein contact maps predict similar 3D protein structure. The success of this method provides support for the notion that changing representations can enable similarity metrics in analogy.

Visuospatial Re-Representation in Analogical Reasoning
Visual and spatial representations seem to play a significant role in analogy. In this paper, we describe a specific role of visual representations: two situations that appear dissimilar non-visuospatially may appear similar when rerepresented visuospatially. We present a computational theory of analogy in which visuospatial re-representation enables analogical transfer in cases where there are...
متن کاملProtein Secondary Structure Prediction: a Literature Review with Focus on Machine Learning Approaches
DNA sequence, containing all genetic traits is not a functional entity. Instead, it transfers to protein sequences by transcription and translation processes. This protein sequence takes on a 3D structure later, which is a functional unit and can manage biological interactions using the information encoded in DNA. Every life process one can figure is undertaken by proteins with specific functio...
متن کاملIn Silico Prediction and Docking of Tertiary Structure of Multifunctional Protein X of Hepatitis B Virus
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a universal health problem and may result into acute, fulminant, chronic hepatitis liver cirrhosis, or hepatocellular carcinoma. Sequence for protein X of HBV was retrieved from Uniprot database. ProtParam from ExPAsy server was used to investigate the physicochemical properties of the protein. Homology modeling was carried out using Phyre2 server, and refin...
متن کاملA bilateral frontoparietal network underlies visuospatial analogical reasoning
Our ability to reason by analogy facilitates problem solving and allows us to communicate ideas efficiently. In this study, we examined the neural correlates of analogical reasoning and, more specifically, the contribution of rostrolateral prefrontal cortex (RLPFC) to reasoning. This area of the brain has been hypothesized to integrate relational information, as in analogy, or the outcomes of s...
