  • Using graphlet degree vectors to predict atomic displacement parameters in protein structures [Elektronski vir]
    Pražnikar, Jure
    In structural biology, atomic displacement parameters, commonly used in the form of B values, describe uncertainties in atomic positions. Their distribution over the structure can provide hints on ... local structural reliability and mobility. A spatial macromolecular model can be represented by a graph whose nodes are atoms and whose edges correspond to all interatomic contacts within a certain distance. Small connected subgraphs, called graphlets, provide information about the wiring of a particular atom. The multiple linear regression approach based on this information aims to predict a distribution of values of isotropic atomic displacement parameters (B values) within a protein structure, given the atomic coordinates and molecular packing. By modeling the dynamic component of atomic uncertainties, this method allows the B values obtained from experimental crystallographic or cryo-electron microscopy studies to be reproduced relatively well.
