A new dataset of 396 protein domains is developed and used to evaluate the performance of the protein secondary structure prediction algorithms DSC, PHD, NNSSP, and PREDATOR. The maximum theoretical Q 3 accuracy for combination of these methods is shown to be 78%. A simple consensus prediction on th
Using a recently developed protein folding algorithm, a prediction of the tertiary structure of the KIX domain of the CREB binding protein is described. The method incorporates predicted secondary and tertiary restraints derived from multiple sequence alignments in a reduced protein model whose conf
We describe two new sequence motifs, present in several families of flavoproteins. The ''GG motif'' (RxGGRxxS/T) is found shortly after the β€β£β€dinucleotide-binding motif (DBM) in L-amino acid oxidases, achacin and aplysianin-A, monoamine oxidases, corticosteroid-binding proteins, and tryptophan 2-mo
A protein energy surface is constructed. Validation is through applications of global energy minimization to surface loops of protein crystal structures. For 9 of 10 predictions, the native backbone conformation is identified correctly. Electrostatic energy is modeled as a pairwise sum of interactio
