Understanding Sequence,
Structure and Function
Relationships and the
Resulting Redundancy
PHAR 201/Bioinformatics I
Philip E. Bourne
UCSD
PHAR 201 Lecture 07, 2012
1
Agenda
• Understand the relationship between sequence,
structure and function. Consider specifically:
– sequence-structure
– structure-structure
– structure-function
• Take home message: a non-redundant set of
sequences is different than a non-redundant set
of structures is different than a non-redundant
set of functions
PHAR 201 Lecture 07, 2012

Why Bother?
• Biology:
– A full understanding of a molecular system
comes from careful examination of the
sequence-structure-function triad
– Each triad is then a component in a biological
process
• Method:
– Bioinformatics studies invariably start from a
non-redundant set of data to achieve
appropriate statistical significance

Background – RMSD Defined
Protein A
d
d1 1

i=N

a2
Represents the overall distance
between two proteins usually
averaged over their Calpha
atoms denoted here a and b

RMSD = Sqrt (1/N
Σ | d| )

Protein B
aN
Thus RMSD is the square root of the
sum of the squares of the distances
between all Calpha atoms
Rule of thumb:
1-2 Å RMSD the proteins are close
<6 Å RMSD they are likely related

Note: Assumes you know residues

Some Useful Observations
• Below 30% protein sequence identity detection of a
homologous relationship is not guaranteed by sequence
alone
• Structure is much more conserved than sequence
• Distinguishing between divergent versus convergent
evolution is an issue
• Structure is limited relative to sequence or the order
1:100 – 1:10000 (depending on how you count)
• Structure follows a power law with respect to function –
each structural template has from 1 to n functions

Given This Complex Relationship
a Non-redundant Set of
Sequences Does not Imply a
Non-redundant Set of Structures

Structure Alignments using CE with z>4.0
We will be revisiting this in the next
couple of lectures
• Specifically:
– How do we capture this redundancy?
– What systems are commonly used to express
this redundancy and what do they bring to our
understanding of biology?
• For now consider what this means using
the most popular structure classification
scheme - SCOP

Nature’s Reductionism
There are ~ 20300 possible proteins
>>>> all the atoms in the Universe
17.4M protein sequences from
17994 species (RefSeq 10/24/12)
38,221 protein structures
yield 1195 domain folds (SCOP 1.75

not changed in 3 years)

Some Basic Rules Governing
Structure-Function Relationships …
• The golden rule is there are no golden
rules – George Bernard Shaw
• Above 40% sequence identity sequences
tend to have the same structure and
function – But there are exceptions
• Structure and function tend to diverge at
the same level of sequence identity
PHAR 201 Lecture 07, 2012
20
Structure vs Function
This is even more complicated than the
relationship between sequence and
structure and not as well understood
PHAR 201 Lecture 07, 2012
21
Complication Comes from One
Structure Multiple Functions
• We saw this from GO already
• phosphoglucose isomerase acts as a
neuroleukin, cytokine and a differentiation
mediator as a monomer in the extracellular
space and as a dimer in the cell involved
in glucose metabolism
PHAR 201 Lecture 07, 2012
22
Consider an Example Relative to
SCOP
• lysozyme and alpha-lactalbumin:
– Same class alpha+beta
– Same superfamily – lysozyme-like
– Same family C-type lysozyme
– Same fold – lysozyme-like
– different function at 40% sequence identity
• Lysozyme – hydrolase EC 3.2.1.17
• Alpha lactalbumin – Ca binding lactose
biosynthesis
PHAR 201 Lecture 07, 2012
23
More Details…
Lysozyme is an O-glycosyl hydrolase, but -lactalbumin
does not have this catalytic activity. Instead it regulates
the substrate specificity of galactosyl transferase through
its sugar binding site, which is common to both lactalbumin and lysozyme. Both the sugar binding site and
catalytic residues have been retained by lysozyme during
evolution, but in -lactalbumin, the catalytic residues have
changed and it is no longer an enzyme.
PHAR 201 Lecture 07, 2012
24
Why is It Not so Well Understood?
1. Function is often ill-defined e.g., biochemical,
biological, phonotypical and instances are
buried in the literature
2. The PDB is biased – it does not have a
balanced repertoire of functions and those
functions are ill-defined
3. There are a number of functional
classifications eg EC, GO that have differing
coverage and depth

Structure vs Function Follows a
Power Law Distribution
• Some folds are
promiscuous and
adopt many different
functions - superfolds

Same Structure and Function Low
Sequence Identity
The globin fold is resilient to amino acid changes. V. stercoraria (bacterial)
hemoglobin (left) and P. marinus (eukaryotic) hemoglobin (right) share just
8% sequence identity, but their overall fold and function is identical.

Convergent Evolution
Subtilisin and chymotrypsin are both serine endopeptidases. They share no
sequence identity, and their folds are unrelated. However, they have an
identical, three-dimensionally conserved Ser-His-Asp catalytic triad, which
catalyses peptide bond hydrolysis. These two enzymes are a classic
example of convergent evolution.
