Protein Secondary Structure Prediction
Given a protein sequence (primary structure), predict its secondary structures
GHWIATRGQLIREAYEDYRHFSSECPFIP
E: -strand
H: -helix
C: coil
CEEEEECCCEEEEECCCHHHHHHCCCCCC
H: ( H: - helix, G: 310 helix, I: -helix )
E: (E: -strand, B: bridge)
C: (T: -turn, S: bend, C: coil)
Assumption: short stretches of residues have propensity to adopt certain
conformation ⇒ conformation of the central residue in a sequence fragment
depends only on flanking residues (sliding window)
Why secondary structure prediction?
-- Because we can (kind of).
-- Because it could be a first step towards prediction of protein tertiary
structure.
“Have solution, need problem.” Nearly every imaginable algorithm has been
applied to secondary structure prediction.
Secondary Structure Prediction Methods
1. First generation: Single amino acid propensities
Chou-Fasman method (1974), GOR I-IV
~56-60% accuracy
2. Second generation: Segments of 3-51 adjacent residues
NNSSP, SSPAL
~65% accuracy
3. Neural network
PHD, Psi-Pred, J-Pred
4. Support vector machine (SVM)
5. Hidden Markov Models (HMM)
Third generation methods
using evolutionary information
~76% accuracy

2. per-segment prediction accuracy (SOV, Segment of OVerlap)
Per-stage segment overlap:
S1: observed SS segment
S2: predicted SS segment

p(,aa) = 580/20,000, p() = 4,000/20,000, p(aa) = 2,000/20,000
P = 580 / (4,000/10) = 1.45

Chou-Fasman method
Nearest Neighbor Methods
* The idea is simple: predict SS of the central residue of a given
segment from homologous segments (neighbors).
For example, from database, find some number of the closest sequences
to a subsequence defined by a window around the central residue, then
use max (N, N, Nc) to assign the SS.

Psi-Pred Method



D. Jones, J. Mol. Boil. 292, 195 (1999).
Method : Neural network
Input data : PSSM generated by PSI-BLAST
Bigger and better sequence database
 Combining several database and data filtering
Training and test sets preparation
 Ss prediction only makes sense for proteins with no homologous
structure.
 No sequence & structural homologues between training and test sets
by CATH and PSI-BLAST (mimicking realistic situation).

How Far Can We Go?
 Currently ~76%
 Proteins with more than 100 homologues 80%
 Assignment is ambiguous (5-15%). Recall DSSP vs STRIDE.
-- non-unique protein structures (dynamic), H-bond cutoff, etc.
 Different secondary structures between homologues (~12%).
 Non-locality. Secondary structure is influenced by long-range interactions.
-- Some segments can have multiple structure types (chameleon
sequences).
Solvent accessibility
 Conceptually similar problem to SS prediction: Buried vs. Exposed.
 Weighted Ensemble Solvent Accessibility predictor:

Why bother?
 To provide structural context for putative mutations that one wants to
characterize biochemically or biophysically.
Transmembrane Segment Prediction
 Again, conceptually similar problem to SS prediction: TM vs. Not.
