Our contribution

Design a scoring function • local sub-structure similarity• evolutionary and functional information• angular similarity for hydrogen bonding

Employ a fast and efficient search algorithm • from highly similar local sub-structures pair (SFP)• recruit new SFPs that satisfies spatial constrains• final refine the alignment within a bound

Scoring Function

local similarity global similarity

CLESUM is the local structure substitution matrix;BLOSUM is the amino acid substitution matrix; v(i,j) measures the angular similarity using three vectors; d(i,j) measures the spatial proximity of two aligned residues. Note: both v(i,j) and d(i,j) are calculated after rigid-body superposition.

Score(i,j)=( max(0,BLOSUM(i,j) )+CLESUM(i,j) )*v(i,j)*d(i,j)

Why use angular similarity ?

The three vectors used in the vect-score v(i,j).

Search Algorithm

[2] SFP stands for Similar Fragment Pair, using ∑max(0,CLESUM(i,j)+BLOSUM(i,j) )

Note:

[1] TopK > TopJ > M

Sort both SFP lists

SFP_long score rank

5 2 4 1

Example: TopK = 5; TopJ = 1

# of consistent SFPs = 4 # of consistent SFPs = 1

From TopK coarse-grained to TopJ fine-grained initial alignment

Top2 SFP is globally supported by three other SFPs, while Top1 SFP is supported only by itself.

Final refinement on DeepAlign-score only in bounded area

(1) refined fine-grained alignment (2) bounded area upon the alignment

(3) dynamic programming to find a path with maximal DeepAlign-score within bounded area

• CDD (Conserved Domain Database): contains 3591 conserved domain structure alignments.

• MALUDUP: contains 241 alignments for homologous domains originated from internal duplication.

• MALISAM: contains 130 alignments for structurally analogous motifs in proteins.

Result on manually-curated data

Result on discrimination data

• We use SABmark to test the ability of identifying distant homologs (super-family) and structural analogs (fold) among those negative data (with no structural similarity)
