  1. Structural biology should be computable! • Protein structures determined by amino acid sequences • Protein structures and complexes correspond to global free energy minima • Fundamental test of understanding and huge practical relevance

  2. Model of energetics of inter and intramolecular interactions Design (Given Structure, Optimize Sequence) Prediction (Given Sequence, Optimize Structure) ROSETTA Ab initio structure Protein Structure Protein design prediction Protein-protein docking Protein-protein Interface design interactions

  3. Model of macromolecular interactions • Removal of single methyl groups can destabilize proteins --> jigsaw puzzle-like packing crucial • Buried polar atoms almost always hydrogen bonded --> treat hydrogen bonding as accurately as possible • Exposed charge substitutions generally have little effect --> damp long range elctrostatics • Focus on short range interactions!

  4. Conformational sampling Random Start Low-Resolution Monte Carlo Search (integrate out sidechain degrees of freedom) High-Resolution Refinement with full atomic detail Select lowest energy models 105 Predictions Jeff Gray (Hopkins), Ora Furman (Hebrew University), Chu Wang

  5. Docking Low-Resolution Search • Monte Carlo Search • Rigid body translations and rotations • Residue-scale interaction potentials Protein representation: backbone atoms + average centroids

  6. Docking Protocol (Target 12: cohesin-dockerin; unbound-bound) • Initial Search • Refinement Energy RMSD to arbitrary starting structure (Å) RMSD to starting structure of refinement

  21. Computing Structural Biology • Free energy function reasonable => Computing simple protein structures and interactions now appears to be within reach • Implications for structural genomics? • More cpu power => more accurate predictions for larger proteins • For larger complexes, experimental data essential (low resolution electron density!). • Symmetry helps! Modeling accuracy also illustrated by structures of designed proteins
