The study of correlated mutations in alignments of homologous proteins proved to be succesful not only in the prediction of their native conformation, but also in the developement of a two-body effective potential between pairs of amino acids. In the present work we extend the effective potential, introducing a many--body term based on the same theoretical framework, making use of a principle of maximum entropy. The extended potential performs better than the two--body one in predicting the...

Cellulosomes are complex multi-enzyme machineries which efficiently degrade plant cell-wall polysaccharides. The multiple domains of the cellulosome proteins are often tethered together by intrinsically disordered regions. The properties and functions of these disordered linkers are not well understood. In this work, we study endoglucanase Cel8A, which is a relevant enzymatic component of the cellulosomes of Clostridium thermocellum. We use both all-atom and coarse-grained simulations to...

Persistent homology has emerged as a popular technique for the topological simplification of big data, including biomolecular data. Multidimensional persistence bears considerable promise to bridge the gap between geometry and topology. However, its practical and robust construction has been a challenge. We introduce two families of multidimensional persistence, namely pseudo-multidimensional persistence and multiscale multidimensional persistence. The former is generated via the repeated...

Molecular recognition between two double stranded (ds) DNA with homologous sequences may not seem compatible with the B-DNA structure because the sequence information is hidden when it is used for joining the two strands. Nevertheless, it has to be invoked to account for various biological data. Using quantum chemistry, molecular mechanics, and hints from recent genetics experiments I show here that direct recognition between homologous dsDNA is possible through formation of short quadruplexes...

The macromolecules that encode and translate information in living systems, DNA and RNA, exhibit distinctive structural asymmetries, including homochirality or mirror image asymmetry and $3' - 5'$ directionality, that are invariant across all life forms. The evolutionary advantages of these broken symmetries remain unknown. Here we utilize a very simple model of hypothetical self-replicating polymers to show that asymmetric autocatalytic polymers are more successful in self-replication compared...

Allosteric regulation at distant sites is central to many cellular processes. In particular, allosteric sites in proteins are a major target to increase the range and selectivity of new drugs, and there is a need for methods capable of identifying intra-molecular signalling pathways leading to allosteric effects. Here, we use an atomistic graph-theoretical approach that exploits Markov transients to extract such pathways and exemplify our results in an important allosteric protein, caspase-1....

Energy landscapes provide a valuable means for studying the folding dynamics of short RNA molecules in detail by modeling all possible structures and their transitions. Higher abstraction levels based on a macro-state decomposition of the landscape enable the study of larger systems, however they are still restricted by huge memory requirements of exact approaches. We present a highly parallelizable local enumeration scheme that enables the computation of exact macro-state transition models...

Two of these proteins come from thermophilic bacteria, one from a cryophilic bacterium and one from a mesophilic organism; three are in the closed and two in the open conformations. Even though the proteins belong to the same fold, the model distinguishes the properties of these proteins in a way which is consistent with experiments. For instance, the thermophilic proteins are more stable...

Self-assembly of proteins is a biological phenomenon which gives rise to spontaneous formation of amyloid fibrils or polymers. The starting point of this phase, called nucleation exhibits an important variability among replicated experiments.To analyse the stochastic nature of this phenomenon, one of the simplest models considers two populations of chemical components: monomers and polymerised monomers. Initially there are only monomers. There are two reactions for the polymerization of a...

Summary: Protein quality assessment is a long-standing problem in bioinformatics. For more than a decade we have developed state-of-art predictors by carefully selecting and optimising inputs to a machine learning method. The correlation has increased from 0.60 in ProQ to 0.81 in ProQ2 and 0.85 in ProQ3 mainly by adding a large set of carefully tuned descriptions of a protein. Here, we show that a substantial improvement can be obtained using exactly the same inputs as in ProQ2 or ProQ3 but...

Given the importance of non-coding RNAs to cellular regulatory functions and rapid growth of RNA transcripts, computational prediction of RNA tertiary structure remains highly demanded yet significantly challenging. Even for a short RNA sequence, the space of tertiary conformations is immense; existing methods to identify native-like conformations mostly resort to random sampling of conformations to gain computational feasibility. However native conformations may not be examined and prediction...

Sm proteins were discovered nearly 20 years ago as a group of small antigenic proteins ($\approx$ 90-120 residues). Since then, an extensive amount of biochemical and genetic data have illuminated the crucial roles of these proteins in forming ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complexes that are used in RNA processing, e.g., spliceosomal removal of introns from pre-mRNAs. Spliceosomes are large macromolecular machines that are comparable to ribosomes in size and complexity, and are composed of...

DNA bending is biologically important for genome regulation and is relevant to a range of nanotechnological systems. Recent results suggest that sharp bending is much easier than implied by the widely-used worm-like chain model; many of these studies, however, remain controversial. We use a coarse-grained model, previously fitted to DNA's basic thermodynamic and mechanical properties, to explore strongly bent systems. We find that as the end-to-end distance is decreased sufficiently short...

Natural protein sequences contain a record of their history. A common constraint in a given protein family is the ability to fold to specific structures, and it has been shown possible to infer the main native ensemble by analyzing covariations in extant sequences. Still, many natural proteins that fold into the same structural topology show different stabilization energies, and these are often related to their physiological behavior. We propose a description for the energetic variation given...

Determining the folding core of a protein yields information about its folding process and dynamics. The experimental procedures for identifying the amino acids which make up the folding core include hydrogen-deuterium exchange and $\Phi$-value analysis and can be expensive and time consuming.

Here, we use a combined method of rigidity analysis alongside coarse-grained simulations of...

We discuss a model of protein conformations where the conformations are combinations of short fragments from some small set. For these fragments we consider a distribution of frequencies of occurrence of pairs (sequence of amino acids, conformation), averaged over some balls in the spaces of sequences and conformations. These frequencies can be estimated due to smallness of epsilon-entropy of the set of conformations of protein fragments. We consider statistical potentials for protein fragments...

Motivation: To assess the quality of a protein model, i.e. to estimate how close it is to its native structure, using no other information than the structure of the model has been shown to be useful for structure prediction. The state of the art method, ProQ2, is based on a machine learning approach that uses a number of features calculated from a protein model. Here, we examine if these features can be exchanged with energy terms calculated from Rosetta and if a combination of these terms can...

The determination of a 'folding core' can help to provide insight into the structure, flexibility, mobility and dynamics, and hence, ultimately, function of a protein - a central concern of structural biology. Changes in the folding core upon ligand binding are of particular interest because they may be relevant to drug-induced functional changes. Cyclophilin A is a multi-functional ligand-binding protein and a significant drug target. It acts principally as an enzyme during protein folding,...

This protein forms amyloid fibrils when in a highly concentrated solution.
