蛋白质二级结构、主链键角和侧链取向之间的相关性

On correlation between protein secondary structure, backbone bond angles, and side-chain orientations

Martin Lundgren, Antti J. Niemi

摘要:

我们调查的精细结构的sp3杂化共价键的几何形状,支配的四面体结构周围的中心C $_α$碳的蛋白质骨架,为此,我们开发了新的可视化技术来分析高分辨率的X射线结构在蛋白质数据库。我们观察到,有一个理想的四面体对称性和蛋白质的局部二级结构的变形之间的相关性。我们提出了一个通用的粗粒度的能量函数来描述随后的侧链几何形状的C $_β$碳取向。能量函数可以模拟具有亚原子精度的侧链几何形状。作为一个例子,我们构建了HP 35鸡绒毛蛋白头部的C $_α$ -C $_β$结构。我们得到的配置,偏离小于0.4的均方根距离从实验的X射线结构。

英文摘要:

We investigate the fine structure of the sp3 hybridized covalent bond geometry that governs the tetrahedral architecture around the central C$_α$ carbon of a protein backbone, and for this we develop new visualization techniques to analyze high resolution X-ray structures in Protein Data Bank. We observe that there is a correlation between the deformations of the ideal tetrahedral symmetry and the local secondary structure of the protein. We propose a universal coarse grained energy function to describe the ensuing side-chain geometry in terms of the C$_β$ carbon orientations. The energy function can model the side-chain geometry with a sub-atomic precision. As an example we construct the C$_α$-C$_β$ structure of HP35 chicken villin headpiece. We obtain a configuration that deviates less than 0.4 Ȧ in root-mean-square distance from the experimental X-ray structure.
