Doug Raiford Lesson 17 Protein Conformation Prediction (Part I)
Two folding models • Framework model • Secondary structure first • Assemble secondary structure segments • Hydrophobic collapse • Molten: compact but denatured • Formation of secondary structure after: settles in • van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonds require close proximity Protein Conformation Prediction (Part I)
Experimentally determining • Isolate protein and crystalize • Time consuming process • Slowly evaporate • Many experiments in parallel • Different conditions • X-ray crystallography • Get XYZ spatial coordinates Protein Conformation Prediction (Part I)
PDBs • Store these XYZ coordinates in text files • PDB website X Y Z Occu Temp Element ATOM 1 N THR A 5 23.200 72.500 13.648 1.00 51.07 N ATOM 2 CA THR A 5 23.930 72.550 12.350 1.00 51.27 C ATOM 3 C THR A 5 23.034 72.048 11.220 1.00 50.34 C ATOM 4 O THR A 5 22.819 72.747 10.228 1.00 51.19 O ATOM 5 CB THR A 5 25.221 71.703 12.416 1.00 51.94 C ATOM 6 OG1 THR A 5 26.159 72.326 13.305 1.00 53.51 O ATOM 7 CG2 THR A 5 25.849 71.583 11.046 1.00 53.33 C Protein Conformation Prediction (Part I)
Modeling • To fully model the folding action of a polypeptide chain • Must know all the forces acting on each aa • Must be able to predict the motion of the aa’s given the forces Protein Conformation Prediction (Part I)
How to aa’s move? • Recall that proteins are able to fold because of the torsional rotation of the aa bonds R almost always 180 R Protein Conformation Prediction (Part I)
In order to model folding… • Must be able to take phi and psi angles and transform into xyz coordinates of various atoms • Don’t forget about R groups • What places in space are occupied? • Bump checking Protein Conformation Prediction (Part I)
Anatomy of a carbon atom • Tetrahedron Protein Conformation Prediction (Part I)
Remember • Know distances • Each angle is 109.5 R almost always 180 R Protein Conformation Prediction (Part I)
The angles • 4 atoms on same plane • , , and ω all relative to R group (O in case of ω) Protein Conformation Prediction (Part I)
Torsion angles to xyz • One approach • Given xyz of last three, and next torsion angle… • Transform so that C is at origin, BC on new X, AB on plane of new Y • Then apply torsion • Start D on X • Swing out 70.5 (180-109.5; in the plane of Y) • Rotate by torsion angle Protein Conformation Prediction (Part I)
New vector space • To transform a vector space… X C Z Y B A Protein Conformation Prediction (Part I)
New vector space • To transform a vector space… X C Z Y B New X axis New Z axis New Y axis A Protein Conformation Prediction (Part I)
New vector space • It’s all about projections • If target vector is a unit vector then simple dot product A B Protein Conformation Prediction (Part I)
New vector space • Dot product of a row with vector yields the projection of the vector onto the vector represented by the row • All three dot products yields all three components X C Z B Y A New X New Z New Y Protein Conformation Prediction (Part I)
What is the new X? • The new X is BC (as a unit vector) X’ C Z’ Y’ B A Protein Conformation Prediction (Part I)
But what is BC? • Remember, all we have is the last xyz coordinates • All vectors are assumed to originate at the origin • So BC is actually [XC,YC,ZC]-[XB,YB,ZB] C B Origin Protein Conformation Prediction (Part I)
And what is ||BC||? • Magnitude of BC X’ C Z’ Y’ B A Protein Conformation Prediction (Part I)
New vector space • First row of transformation matrix X C Z B Y A New X Protein Conformation Prediction (Part I)
Second Row • AB in plane of new Y • so Z component is zero X C Z B Y Important piece: Y component A Protein Conformation Prediction (Part I)
New vector space • Second row of transformation matrix X C Z B Y A New Y Protein Conformation Prediction (Part I)
New vector space • Third row of transformation matrix easy once have first two: Cross Product X C Z B Y A New Y Protein Conformation Prediction (Part I)
The next point: it’s all trig • Know distance to next atom • Know angle is 70.5° (180-109.5) • X component = ||CD|| cos(70.5°) • Y component starts out at ||CD|| sin(70.5°) • This is the distance from X to the new D X D C Z Y B A Protein Conformation Prediction (Part I)
Final torsional rotation Y • Z component is that distance times sinθ(torsion angle) • Y = ||CD|| sin(70.5°)*cos θ • Z = ||CD|| sin(70.5°)*sin θ Dnewin plane of xy 70.5° Z C X Dfinal Θ (torsional angle) C Dnewin plane of xy Y Protein Conformation Prediction (Part I)
Going from xyz to angles • Transform next xyz into new vector space coordinates (same as before • Determine ||CD|| X D C Z Y B A Protein Conformation Prediction (Part I)
An example • XYZ coordinates for an amino acid • Build the linear transform matrix used to transform the original vector space into the space defined by the three atoms above. Protein Conformation Prediction (Part I)
