    Area of Science:

    • Protein structure analysis
    • Computational biophysics

    Background:

    • Understanding protein structure is crucial for function.
    • Identifying structural domains aids in predicting protein behavior and interactions.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To localize stable regions and define domain boundaries in globular proteins.
    • To establish a criterion for domain boundary determination based on intramolecular interactions.
    • To analyze domain structures in barnase and its complex with a dinucleotide inhibitor.

    Main Methods:

    • Calculation of intramolecular interactions using a pair-wise approach.
    • Application of a specific criterion to define domain boundaries based on interaction energy minima.
    • Structural domain identification and boundary probability assessment.

    Main Results:

    • Stable regions and potential domain boundaries were localized.
    • A criterion for domain boundary definition was successfully applied.
    • The largest structural interaction between domains in barnase was found between residues 1-43 and 44-110.

    Conclusions:

    • The study successfully identified structural domains and their boundaries in the studied proteins.
    • The proposed criterion effectively defines domain boundaries based on interaction energy.
    • Specific domain organization was elucidated for barnase and its inhibitor complex.
