Comparative modeling methods: Application to the family of the mammalian serine proteases

Greer, Jonathan·1990·Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics

Abstract

Comparative modeling methods are described that can be used to construct a three‐dimensional model structure of a new protein from knowledge of its sequence and of the experimental structure and sequences of other members of its homology family. The methods are illustrated with the mammalian serine protease family, for which seven experimental structures have been reported in the literature, and the sequence for over 35 different protein members of the family are available. The strategy for modeling these proteins is presented, and criteria are developed for determining and assigning the reliability of the modeled structure. Criteria are described that are specially designed to help detect cases in which it is likely that the local structure diverges significantly from the usual conformation of the family.

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.
