1 Proteins Secondary Structure Predictions Structural Bioinformatics

2 2 In 12.12.2013 there were 89,110 protein structures in the protein structure database. Great increase but still a magnitude lower then the total number of protein sequence databases (close to 1,000,000) Was solved in 1958 by Max Perutz John Kendrew of Cambridge University. (Won the 1962 and Nobel Prize in Chemistry ) The first high resolution structure of a protein-myoglobin

3 3 Predicting the three dimensional structure from sequence of a protein is very hard (some times impossible) However we can predict with relative high precision the secondary structure MERFGYTRAANCEAP…. What can we do to bridge the gap??

4 What do we mean by Secondary Structure ? Secondary structure are the building blocks of the protein structure: =

5 5 What do we mean by Secondary Structure ? Secondary structure is usually divided into three categories: Alpha helix Beta strand (sheet) Anything else – turn/loop

6 6 The different secondary structures are combined together to form the Tertiary Structure of the Proteins

7 7 RBP Globin Tertiary Secondary ? ? ?

8 Secondary Structure Prediction Given a primary sequence ADSGHYRFASGFTYKKMNCTEAA what secondary structure will it adopt (alpha helix, beta strand or random coil) ? 8

9 9 Secondary Structure Prediction Methods Statistical methods –Based on amino acid frequencies –HMM (Hidden Markov Model) Machine learning methods –SVM, Neural networks

10 10 Chou and Fasman (1974) Name P(a) P(b) P(turn) Alanine 142 83 66 Arginine 98 93 95 Aspartic Acid 101 54 146 Asparagine 67 89 156 Cysteine 70 119 119 Glutamic Acid 151 037 74 Glutamine 111 110 98 Glycine 57 75 156 Histidine 100 87 95 Isoleucine 108 160 47 Leucine 121 130 59 Lysine 114 74 101 Methionine 145 105 60 Phenylalanine 113 138 60 Proline 57 55 152 Serine 77 75 143 Threonine 83 119 96 Tryptophan 108 137 96 Tyrosine 69 147 114 Valine 106 170 50 The propensity of an amino acid to be part of a certain secondary structure (e.g. – Proline has a low propensity of being in an alpha helix or beta sheet  breaker) Success rate of 50% Statistical Methods for SS prediction

11 11 Secondary Structure Method Improvements ‘Sliding window’ approach Most alpha helices are ~12 residues long Most beta strands are ~6 residues long  Look at all windows of size 6/12  Calculate a score for each window. If >threshold  predict this is an alpha helix/beta sheet TGTAGPQLKCHIQWMLPLKK

12 12 Improvements since 1980’s Adding information from conservation in MSA Smarter algorithms (e.g. Machine learning, HMM).

13 13 HMM enables us to calculate the probability of assigning a sequence to a secondary structure TGTAGPOLKCHIQWML HHHHHHHLLLLBBBBB p = ? HMM (Hidden Markov Model) approach for predicting Secondary Structure

14 14 The probability of observing a residue which belongs to an α-helix followed by a residue belonging to a turn = 0.15 The probability of observing Alanine as part of a β- sheet Table built according to large database of known secondary structures α-helix followed by α-helix Beginning with an α- helix

15 15 Example What is the probability that the sequence TGQ will be in a helical structure?? TGQ HHH p = 0.45 x 0.041 x 0.8 x 0.028 x 0.8x 0.0635 = 0.0020995 Success of HMM based methods-> 75%-80%

16 What can we learn from secondary structure predictions??

18 18 How do the protein structure relate to the primary protein sequence??

19 19 -Early experiments have shown that the sequence of the protein is sufficient to determine its structure (Anfisen) - Protein structure is more conserved than protein sequence and more closely related to function. SEQUENCE

20 20 How (CAN) Different Amino Acid Sequence Determine Similar Protein Structure ?? Lesk and Chothia 1980

21 21 The Globin Family

22 22 Different sequences can result in similar structures 1ecd2hhd

23 23 We can learn about the important features which determine structure and function by comparing the sequences and structures ?

24 24 The Globin Family

25 25 Why is Proline 36 conserved in all the globin family ?

26 26 Where are the gaps?? The gaps in the pairwise alignment are mapped to the loop regions

27 27 How are remote homologs related in terms of their structure? b-lactoglobulin RBD

31 Pfam Database that contains a large collection of multiple sequence alignments of protein families (common structures) Very useful for function prediction. http://pfam.sanger.ac.uk/

32 The zinc-finger family (domain) Known family of Transcription Factors ZINC FINGER DOMAIN Protein sequence

33 Pfam Based on Profile hidden Markov Models (HMMs) which represents the protein family HMM in comparison to PSSM is a model which considers dependencies between the different columns in the matrix (different residues) and is thus much more powerful!!!! http://pfam.sanger.ac.uk/
