Protein Organization

7.2K
Proteins are polymers of amino acid residues. They are versatile and responsible for different cellular functions, including DNA replication, molecular transport, catalysis, and structural support. Proteins have a hierarchical structure comprising at least three levels of organization: primary, secondary, and tertiary structure. Some large proteins have a quaternary structure where individual protein subunits are linked together.
The primary structure of a protein is its amino acid sequence....

Protein Folding

8.7K
Proteins are chains of amino acids linked together by peptide bonds. Upon synthesis, a protein folds into a three-dimensional conformation, critical to its biological function. Interactions between its constituent amino acids guide protein folding, and hence the protein structure is primarily dependent on its amino acid sequence.
Protein Structure Is Critical to Its Biological Function
Proteins perform a wide range of biological functions such as catalyzing chemical reactions, providing...

Protein and Protein Structure

71.2K
Proteins are one of the most abundant organic molecules in living systems and have the most diverse range of functions of all macromolecules. Proteins may be structural, regulatory, contractile, or protective. They may serve in transport, storage, or membranes; or they may be toxins or enzymes. Their structures, like their functions, vary greatly. They are all, however, amino acid polymers arranged in a linear sequence.
A protein's shape is critical to its function. For example, an enzyme...

    Area of Science:

    • Computational Biology
    • Structural Bioinformatics
    • Protein Science

    Background:

    • Accurate protein secondary structure prediction is crucial for protein structure modeling.
    • Improved secondary structure prediction simplifies tertiary structure modeling and high-resolution 3D model generation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To enhance 8-state protein secondary structure prediction accuracy.
    • To investigate the effectiveness of a template-based approach incorporating structural information.

    Main Methods:

    • A template-based method was developed using structural templates from proteins with sequence similarity.
    • Structural templates were integrated with sequence and evolutionary data for training two-stage neural networks.
    • Heuristic structural information was used when templates were unavailable.

    Main Results:

    • The template-based method achieved a 7-fold cross-validated Q8 accuracy of 78.85%.
    • Templates from proteins with as little as 20-30% sequence similarity improved prediction accuracy.
    • Prediction accuracy for less frequent secondary structures (3-10 helices, turns, bends) was significantly enhanced.

    Conclusions:

    • Structural information from templates serves as effective features for improving 8-state secondary structure predictions.
    • The developed prediction algorithm, C8-SCORPION, is available via a web server.
    • This method offers practical benefits by improving the prediction of diverse secondary structure elements.
