The estimation of protein secondary structure from circular dichroism spectra is described by a multivariate linear model with noise (Gauss-Markoff model). With this formalism the adequacy of the linear model is investigated, paying special attention to the estimation of the error in the secondary s
This article presents SOMCD, an improved method for the evaluation of protein secondary structure from circular dichroism spectra, based on Kohonen's self-organizing maps (SOM). Protein circular dichroism (CD) spectra are used to train a SOM, which arranges the spectra on a two-dimensional map. Loca
A new procedure based on the statistical method of "variable selection" is used to predict the secondary structure of proteins from circular dichroism spectra. Variable selection adds the flexibility found in the Provencher and GlΓΆckner method (S. W. Provencher and J. GlΓΆckner, 1981, Biochemistry 20
We have expanded our reference set of proteins used in the estimation of protein secondary structure by CD spectroscopy from 29 to 37 proteins by including 3 additional globular proteins with known X-ray structure and 5 denatured proteins. We have also modified the self-consistent method for analyzi
