Mechanistic Models: Compartment Models in Algorithms for Numerical Problem Solving

413
Mechanistic models play a crucial role in algorithms for numerical problem-solving, particularly in nonlinear mixed effects modeling (NMEM). These models aim to minimize specific objective functions by evaluating various parameter estimates, leading to the development of systematic algorithms. In some cases, linearization techniques approximate the model using linear equations.
In individual population analyses, different algorithms are employed, such as Cauchy's method, which uses a...

Protein Organization01:24

Protein Organization

10.2K
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....

Conservation of Protein Domains Over Different Proteins

15.2K
Protein domains are small structurally independent units that are part of a single amino acid chain.  Although these domains are often structurally independent, they may rely on synergistic effects to perform their functions as part of a larger protein. Protein domains may be conserved within the same organism, as well as across different organisms.
A limited set of protein domains often duplicate and recombine during evolution. These domains can be organized in different combinations to...

Protein and Protein Structure

93.2K
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:

    • Bioinformatics
    • Computational Biology
    • Structural Biology

    Background:

    • Protein structure prediction is a critical challenge in bioinformatics.
    • Model refinement is essential for improving the accuracy of predicted protein structures.
    • Existing refinement methods struggle to consistently enhance model quality, as indicated by Critical Assessment of Structure Prediction (CASP) results.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and evaluate novel evolutionary algorithms for protein model refinement.
    • To investigate the effectiveness of multidimensional scaling (MDS), MODELLER software, and a hybrid approach as crossover operators in evolutionary refinement.

    Main Methods:

    • Three evolutionary algorithms were developed for protein model refinement.
    • The methods utilized multidimensional scaling (MDS) for a geometrical approach, MODELLER software for a statistical/energy minimization approach, and a hybrid of both.
    • MDS combined parent contact maps, while MODELLER used its remodeling module to generate new models.

    Main Results:

    • Promising results were achieved using CASP datasets.
    • The MDS-based method successfully improved the global distance test score (GDT-TS) for the best model in 9 out of 16 test targets.
    • The hybrid method aimed to leverage the strengths of both MDS and MODELLER approaches.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed evolutionary algorithms, particularly the MDS-based method, show potential for improving protein model refinement.
    • Further investigation into the hybrid approach may yield enhanced performance by combining geometrical and statistical methods.
    • These methods offer a promising direction for addressing the challenges in consistent protein model quality improvement.
