ASSASSIN: A Constraint Based Assignment System for Protein 2D Nuclear Magnetic Resonance*
نویسندگان
چکیده
Structurally assigning a protein by 2D NMR is a very time consuming and error prone task if done manually. ASSASSIN has been developed to help automate this task by making use of the constraint logic programming language CHIP. There are two separate modules, or agents. The first module concentrates on the detailed analysis of the spectra while the second reviews the current structural models and suggests improvements. This paper describes the distributed architecture of ASSASSIN and explains the constraint satisfaction algorithms which we have developed.

A Constraint Reasoning System for Automating Sequence-Specific Resonance Assignments from Multidimensional Protein NMR Spectra
AUTOASSIGN is a prototype expert system designed to aid in the determination of protein structure from nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements. In this paper we focus on one of the key steps of this process, the assignment of the observed NMR signals to specific atomic nuclei in the protein; i.e. the determination of sequence-specific resonance assignments. Recently developed triple-reson...
متن کامل13C spin dilution for simplified and complete solid-state NMR resonance assignment of insoluble biological assemblies.
A strategy for simplified and complete resonance assignment of insoluble and noncrystalline proteins by solid-state NMR (ssNMR) spectroscopy is presented. Proteins produced with [1-(13)C]- or [2-(13)C]glucose are very sparsely labeled, and the resulting 2D ssNMR spectra exhibit smaller line widths (by a factor of ∼2 relative to uniformly labeled proteins) and contain a reduced number of cross-p...
متن کاملADAPT-NMR Enhancer: complete package for reduced dimensionality in protein NMR spectroscopy
SUMMARY ADAPT-nuclear magnetic resonance (ADAPT-NMR) offers an automated approach to the concurrent acquisition and processing of protein NMR data with the goal of complete backbone and side chain assignments. What the approach lacks is a useful graphical interface for reviewing results and for searching for missing peaks that may have prevented assignments or led to incorrect assignments. Beca...
متن کاملGeometric distortion evaluation of magnetic resonance images by a new large field of view phantom for magnetic resonance based radiotherapy purposes
Background: The magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based radiotherapy planning method have been considered in recent years because of the advantages of MRI and the problems of planning with two images modality. The first step in MRI-based radiotherapy is to evaluate magnetic resonance (MR) images geometric distortion. Therefore, the present study aimed to evaluate system related geometric distort...
