Protein Structure and Function Prediction Using I‐TASSER

Open access
Yang, Jianyi, Zhang, Yang·2015·Current Protocols in Bioinformatics

Abstract

I‐TASSER is a hierarchical protocol for automated protein structure prediction and structure‐based function annotation. Starting from the amino acid sequence of target proteins, I‐TASSER first generates full‐length atomic structural models from multiple threading alignments and iterative structural assembly simulations followed by atomic‐level structure refinement. The biological functions of the protein, including ligand‐binding sites, enzyme commission number, and gene ontology terms, are then inferred from known protein function databases based on sequence and structure profile comparisons. I‐TASSER is freely available as both an on‐line server and a stand‐alone package. This unit describes how to use the I‐TASSER protocol to generate structure and function prediction and how to interpret the prediction results, as well as alternative approaches for further improving the I‐TASSER modeling quality for distant‐homologous and multi‐domain protein targets. © 2015 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
