Detection of common three‐dimensional substructures in proteins

Vriend, Gerrit, Sander, Chris·1991·Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics

Abstract

We present a fully automatic algorithm for three‐dimensional alignment of protein structures and for the detection of common substructures and structural repeats. Given two proteins, the algorithm first identifies all pairs of structurally similar fragments and subsequently clusters into larger units pairs of fragments that are compatible in three dimensions. The detection of similar substructures is independent of insertion/deletion penalties and can be chosen to be independent of the topology of loop connections and to allow for reversal of chain direction. Using distance geometry filters and other approximations, the algorithm, implemented in the WHAT IF program, is so fast that structural comparison of a single protein with the entire database of known protein structures can be performed routinely on a workstation. The method reproduces known non‐trivial superpositions such as plastocyanin on azurin. In addition, we report surprising structural similarity between ubiquitin and a (2Fe‐2S) ferredoxin.

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.
