•Model with amino acid residues that best fit the density map
NMR
•Proteins labeled with 13C or 15N
•Radiofrequency radiation used to induce nuclear spin state transitions
in a magnetic field
•Interactions between spinning isotope pairs produce radio signal

Protein structure comparisons
Comparing two protein structures is a fundamental
technique in protein analysis
Finding remote homologs
Proteins structures can be very similar even if sequence
identity is very low (<20%)
Intermolecular method
Identify equivalent residues
Translate one structure relative to the other unlik both occupy same
space
Rotate one structure relative to other, and continuously calcuilate
distances between equivalent residues
N
Root mean square deviation

i 1
Di2
N
Larger proteins have larger RMSD
Difficult to identify equivalent residues
Discard regions outside secondary structures
Work with 6-9 residue fragments
Dynamic programming, starting with few equivalent residues
Intramolecular method
•Calculate a distance matrix of all residue distances in two
proteins, separately
•Translate two matrices until differences are minimal
•Good to identify similar secondary structure regions in two
proteins
Multiple structure alignment
Compare structures in pairwise fashion, generating matrices based on RSMD scores
Construct phylogenetic tree
Two must similar structures are realigned
Median structure =created to which other more distant structures are systematically
aligned
DALI
Distances calculated from intra-molecular C distances matrices
Matrices are aligned to find local structural similarities
Calculate Z-score
CE Combinatorial Extension
Like DALI, but uses every 8th residue
VAST Vector Alignment Search Tool
Uses intra- and intermolecular approaches
SSAP
Intramolecular based methods
Dynamic programming to find residue path with optimal score
STAMP
Intermolecular approach, using dynamic programming
Protein structure classification
•Classification systems allows identification of relationships between structures
•Provide evolutionary view of all structures
•Newly solved structures can be fitted into hierarchy, defining possible functions
SCOP (Structural Classification of Proteins)
Manual; examination of structures
Classes, folds, families and super families
Families share high sequence homology
Super families may have common ancestral proteins
Folds look at order and connectivity of secondary structures, may not be
evolutionary related
Classes: folds with similar core structures: all-. all-,  and , etc.
CATH (Class, architecture, topology and homologs)
Uses automatic assignment with SSAP as well as manual comparison
Class similar to SCOP
Architecture intermediate between SCOP fold and class: overall packaging and
arrangement of secondary structures without regard for connectivity
Topology = SCOP fold
Homologous superfamily and homologous family equivalent to SCOP super family
and family
