- | ==Concept==
| |
- | *Protein structures (3D) can be parsed into a finite number of structural alphabets (e.g. a torsion angle of each residue)
| |
- | *From these '''structural alphabets''', we will identify meaningful structural words..
| |
- | **Frequent structural words (motifs?) and popular sentences (super secondary structures?)
| |
- | *Using these structural ''words'', 1) building a profile, 2) relating evolution of molecules (proteins & folds) and organismic phylogeny (genomes; a catalog of words, sentences..)
| |
- | *Assumptions - ...
| |
- | *Expectation - Multiple Birth (Birth and death) model??
| |
| | | |
- | ==Procedure==
| |
- | ===Standard data set===
| |
- | *We are going to use [http://scop.berkeley.edu the SCOP DB]: sequences and structures in the [http://astral.berkeley.edu/ Astral compendium]

| |
- | ===Torsion angles===
| |
- | *Structural alphabets based on torsion angle distributions in the [[:en:ramachandran plot|ramachandran plot]]

- | ====Calculation====
| |
- | *Following tools can be used to calculate torsion angles of backbones
