  1. Comparative modeling with MODELLER http://salilab.org/modeller/ Ben Webb, Andrej Sali Lab UC San Francisco Maya Topf, Birkbeck College, London

  2. Comparative modeling overview • Why build comparative models? • Many more sequences available than structures (millions vs. tens of thousands) • Many applications (e.g. determination of function) rely on structural information • Structure is often more conserved than sequence (in 2005, 900K of 1.7M structures modeled), since evolution tends to preserve function

  3. Comparative modeling overview • How does it work? • Extract information from known structures (one or more templates), and use to build the structure for the ‘target’ sequence • Should also consider information from other sources: physical force fields, statistics (e.g. PDB mining) • Classes of methods for comparative modeling • Assembly of rigid bodies (core, loops, sidechains) • Segment matching • Satisfaction of spatial restraints

  4. Comparative modeling by satisfaction of spatial restraints - MODELLER A. Šali & T. Blundell. J. Mol. Biol. 234, 779, 1993. J.P. Overington & A. Šali. Prot. Sci. 3, 1582, 1994. A. Fiser, R. Do & A. Šali, Prot. Sci., 9, 1753, 2000.

  5. 1. Align sequence with structures • First, must determine the template structures • Simplistically, try to align the target sequence against every known structure’s sequence • In practice, this is too slow, so heuristics are used (e.g. BLAST) • Profile or HMM searches are generally more sensitive in difficult cases (e.g. Modeller’s profile.build method, or PSI-BLAST) • Could also use threading or other web servers • Alignment to templates generally uses global dynamic programming • Sequence-sequence: relies purely on a matrix of observed residue-residue mutation probabilities (‘align’) • Sequence-structure: gap insertion is penalized within secondary structure (helices etc.) (‘align2d’) • Other features and/or user-defined (‘salign’) or use an external program

  6. 2. Extract spatial restraints • Spatial restraints incorporate homology information, statistical preferences, and physical knowledge • Template Cα- Cα internal distances • Backbone dihedrals (φ/ψ) • Sidechain dihedrals givenresidue type of both targetand template • Force field stereochemistry(bond, angle, dihedral) • Statistical potentials • Other experimental constraints • etc.

  7. 3. Satisfy spatial restraints • All information is combined into a single objective function • Restraints and statistics are converted to an “energy” by taking the negative log • Force field (CHARMM 22) simply added in • Function is optimized by conjugate gradients and simulated annealing molecular dynamics, starting from the target sequence threaded onto template structure(s) • Multiple models are generally recommended; ‘best’ model or cluster or models chosen by simply taking the lowest objective function score, or using a model assessment method such as Modeller’s own DOPE or GA341, fit to EM density, or external programs such as PROSA or DFIRE

  12. Loop modeling • Often, there are parts of the sequence which have no detectable templates (usually loops) • “Mini folding problem” – these loops must be sampled to get improved conformations • Database searches only complete for 4-6 residue loops • Modeller uses conformational search with a custom energy function optimized for loop modeling (statistical potential derived from PDB) • Fiser/Melo protocol (‘loopmodel’) • Newer DOPE + GB/SA protocol (‘dope_loopmodel’)

  13. Accuracy of loop models as a function of amount of optimization

  14. Fraction of loops modeled with medium accuracy (<2Å)

  15. Problem:the structures may exhibit conformational changes (induced fit, target-template differences). • Solution: use flexible fitting to refine the structures in the map. ΔG refinement Fitting Structural Models in cryoEM maps • Problem: comparative models are often inaccurate. • Solution: Use cryoEM maps to assess the modelsbyrigid density fitting. • Problem:the resolution of the map can be too low for an unambiguous placement of a component. • Solution:use additional information to determine the assembly architecture.
