从头计算蛋白质结构预测的一般范例之一涉及对构象空间进行采样,使得产生一大组诱饵(候选)结构,然后使用各种评分函数从这些诱饵中选择天然样构象。在这项研究中,基于Banavar及其同事首次提出的物理/几何方法,我们制定了一个基于知识的评分函数,该函数使用蛋白质构象中残基三联体之间形成的曲率半径。通过分析其性能的各种诱饵集,我们确定了一组很好的参数-距离截止和距离箱的数量-用于配置这样的功能。此外,我们调查的效果,使用各种方法编译先验分布的性能的知识为基础的功能。目前形式的残基三联体评分功能的可能扩展进行了讨论。
One of the general paradigms for ab initio protein structure prediction involves sampling the conformational space such that a large set of decoy (candidate) structures are generated and then selecting native-like conformations from those decoys using various scoring functions. In this study, based on a physical/geometric approach first suggested by Banavar and colleagues, we formulate a knowledge-based scoring function, which uses the radii of curvature formed among triplets of residues in a protein conformation. By analyzing its performance on various decoy sets, we determine a good set of parameters—the distance cutoff and the number of distance bins—to use for configuring such a function. Furthermore, we investigate the effect of using various approaches for compiling the prior distribution on the performance of the knowledge-based function. Possible extensions to the current form of the residue triplet scoring function are discussed.
