    Notes: General patterns of protein structural organization have emerged from studies of hundreds of structures elucidated by X-ray crystallography and nuclear magnetic resonance. Structural units are commonly identified by visual inspection of molecular models using qualitative criteria. Here, we propose an algorithm for identification of structural units by objective, quantitative criteria based on atomic interactions. The underlying physical concept is maximal interactions within each unit and minimal interaction between units (domains). In a simple harmonic approximation, interdomain dynamics is determined by the strength of the interface and the distribution of masses. The most likely domain decomposition involves units with the most correlated motion, or largest interdomain fluctuation time. The decomposition of a convoluted 3-D structure is complicated by the possibility that the chain can cross over several times between units. Grouping the residues by solving an eigenvalue problem for the contact matrix reduces the problem to a one-dimensional search for all reasonable trial bisections. Recursive bisection yields a tree of putative folding units. Simple physical criteria are used to identify units that could exist by themselves. The units so defined closely correspond to crystallographers' notion of structural domains. The results are useful for the analysis of folding principles, for modular protein design and for protein engineering. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The recent determination of the three-dimensional structure of urease revealed striking similarities of enzyme architecture to adenosine deaminase and phosphotriesterase, evidence of a distant evolutionary relationship that had gone undetected by one-dimensional sequence comparisons. Here, based on an analysis of conservation patterns in three dimensions, we report the discovery of the same active-site architecture in an even larger set of enzymes involved primarily in nucleotide metabolism. As a consequence, we predict the three-dimensional fold and details of the active site architecture for dihydroorotases, allantoinases, hydantoinases, AMP-, adenine and cytosine deaminases, imidazolonepropionase, aryldialkylphosphatase, chlorohydrolases, formylmethanofuran dehydrogenases, and proteins involved in animal neuronal development. Two member families are common to archaea, eubacteria, and eukaryota. Thirteen other functions supported by the same structural motif and conserved chemical mechanism apparently represent later adaptations for different substrate specificities in different cellular contexts. © 1997 Wiley-Liss Inc.

    Notes: The number of protein structures known in atomic detail has increased from one in 1960 (Kendrew, J. C., Strandberg, B. E., Hart, R. G., Davies, D. R., Phillips, D. C., Shore, V. C. Nature (London) 185:422-427, 1960) to more than 1000 in 1994. The rate at which new structures are being published exceeds one a day as a result of recent advances in protein engineering, crystallography, and spectroscopy. More and more frequently, a newly determined structure is similar in fold to a known one, even when no sequence similarity is detectable. A new generation of computer algorithms has now been developed that allows routine comparison of a protein structure with the database of all known structures. Such structure database searches are already used daily and they are beginning to rival sequence database searches as a tool for discovering biologically interesting relationships. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: We discuss how methods based on hidden Markov models performed in the fold-recognition section of the CASP2 experiment. Hidden Markov models were built for a representative set of just over 1,000 structures from the Protein Data Bank (PDB). Each CASP2 target sequence was scored against this library of HMMs. In addition, an HMM was built for each of the target sequences and all of the sequences in PDB were scored against that target model, with a good score on both methods indicating a high probability that the target sequence is homologous to the structure. The method worked well in comparison to other methods used at CASP2 for targets of moderate difficulty, where the closest structure in PDB could be aligned to the target with at least 15% residue identity.

    Notes: The rapid growth in the number of experimentally determined three-dimensional protein structures has sharpened the need for comprehensive and up-to-date surveys of known structures. Classic work on protein structure classification has made it clear that a structural survey is best carried out at the level of domains, i.e., substructures that recur in evolution as functional units in different protein contexts. We present a method for automated domain identification from protein structure atomic coordinates based on quantitative measures of compactness and, as the new element, recurrence. Compactness criteria are used to recursively divide a protein into a series of successively smaller and smaller substructures. Recurrence criteria are used to select an optimal size level of these substructures, so that many of the chosen substructures are common to different proteins at a high level of statistical significance. The joint application of these criteria automatically yields consistent domain definitions between remote homologs, a result difficult to achieve using compactness criteria alone. The method is applied to a representative set of 1,137 sequence-unique protein families covering 6,500 known structures. Clustering of the resulting set of domains (substructures) yields 594 distinct fold classes (types of substructures). The Dali Domain Dictionary (http://www.embl-ebi.ac.uk/dali) not only provides a global structural classification, but also a comprehensive description of families of protein sequences grouped around representative proteins of known structure. The classification will be continuously updated and can serve as a basis for improving our understanding of protein evolution and function and for evolving optimal strategies to complete the map of all natural protein structures.

    The cytidylyltransferase superfamily: Identification of the nucleotide-binding site and fold prediction (1995)

    Notes: The crystal structure of glycerol-3-phosphate cytidylyltransferase from B. subtilis (TagD) is about to be solved. Here, we report a testable structure prediction based on the identification by sequence analysis of a superfamily of functionally diverse but structurally similar nucleotide-binding enzymes. We predict that TagD is a member of this family. The most conserved region in this superfamily resembles the ATP-binding HiGH motif of class I aminoacyI-tRNA synthetases. The predicted secondary structure of cytidylyltransferase and its homologues is compatible with the α/β topography of the class I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases. The hypothesis of similarity of fold is strengthened by sequence-structure alignment and 3D model building using the known structure of tyrosyl tRNA synthetase as template. The proposed 3D model of TagD is plausible both structurally, with a well packed hydrophobic core, and functionally, as the most conserved residues cluster around the putative nucleotide binding site. If correct, the model would imply a very ancient evolutionary link between class I tRNA synthetases and the novel cytidylyltransferase superfamily. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
