INTRODUCTION
Proteins are the most abundant biological macromolecules,
occurring in all cells and all parts of cells. Proteins also occur in great
variety; thousands of different kinds, ranging in size to large, may be
found in a single cell.
Proteins exhibit enormous diversity of biological function and are
the most important. Proteins are the molecular instruments through
which genetic information is expressed.
Pacific Networks Pacific NetworksSTRUCTURE ANALYSIS OF PROTEIN 05
The principles of sequence analysis showed how, under certain
circumstances, the function of a new gene could be assigned by
comparison with genes with similar sequences whose functions have
already been determined.
Although not a foolproof method for functional annotation, this
strategy has been successful in the functional classification of 30–40%
of the genes discovered in the genome projects.

30% gene indentified by sequence analysis.
30% gene were anonymous
10% are ORFs
Pacific Networks Pacific NetworksSTRUCTURE ANALYSIS OF PROTEIN 07
STRUCTURAL PROTEOMICS
The aim of structural proteomics is to express large numbers of
genes and compare the three-dimensional structures of the resulting
proteins revealing evolutionary relationships between orphan genes
and those whose functions are known. This brings the
determination of protein structure to the beginning of the
investigative process.
Pacific Networks Pacific NetworksSTRUCTURE ANALYSIS OF PROTEIN 08
SEQUECCE ANALYSIS
Pairwise comparisons
BLAST
FASTA
Really useful when there is >30% sequence hit between
the query sequence and entries in the sequence databases.

SEQUENCE ANALYSIS ALONE IS NOT
SUFFICIENT TO ANNOTATE ALL
ORPHAN GENES
Pacific Networks Pacific NetworksSTRUCTURE ANALYSIS OF PROTEIN 10
PROTEIN STRUCTURES ARE MORE HIGHLY CONSERVED
THAN SEQUENCES
Sequence comparison is a very powerful method for functional
annotation, but even with sophisticated multiple alignment tools,
fewer than 50% of newly discovered genes can be matched to
previously identified genes with known functions.
Structure is much more strongly conserved than sequence because of
degeneracy, a concept that is most often applied to nucleotide
sequences but is also relevant to protein structures

METHODS FOR SOLVING PROTEIN STRUCTURE
Direct determination –
X-ray crystallography
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy
Mass spectroscopy
Prediction method
Comparative modeling -
Pacific Networks Pacific NetworksSTRUCTURE ANALYSIS OF PROTEIN 12
X-ray crystallography is a method used for determining the atomic
and molecular structure of a crystal, in which the
crystalline atoms cause a beam of X-rays to diffract into many
specific directions.
By measuring the angles and intensities of these diffracted beams,
a crystallographer can produce a three-dimensional picture of the
density of electrons within the crystal.

NUCLEAR MAGNETIC RESONANCE SPECTROSCOPY
Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, most commonly known
as NMR spectroscopy, is a research technique that exploits
the magnetic properties of certain atomic nuclei.
It determines the physical and chemical properties of atoms or
the molecules in which they are contained.
Most frequently, NMR spectroscopy is used to investigate the
properties of organic molecules, although it is applicable to any kind of
sample that contains nuclei possessing spin.
Pacific Networks Pacific NetworksSTUCTURE ANALYSIS OF PROTEIN 18
PRINCIPLE
In the presence of an external magnetic
field (B0), two spin states exist, +1/2
and -1/2.
The magnetic moment of the lower
energy +1/2 state is aligned with the
external field, but that of the higher
energy -1/2 spin state is opposed to the
external field.

PROCEDURE
Pacific Networks Pacific NetworksSTUCTURE ANALYSIS OF PROTEIN 20
NMR SPECTROSCOPY
Can perform in solution.
No need for crystallization
Can only analyze proteins that are <300aa.
Many proteins are much larger.
Can’t analyze multi-subunit complexes
Proteins must be stable.
Pacific Networks Pacific NetworksSTRUCTURE ANALYSIS OF PROTEIN 21
Mass spectrometry works by ionizing chemical compounds to
generate charged molecules or molecule fragments and measuring
their mass-to-charge ratios.
Mass spectrometry is an important emerging method for the
characterization and sequencing of proteins. The two primary
methods for ionization of whole proteins are ESI and MALDI.
MASS SPECTROMETR
Pacific Networks Pacific NetworksSTRUCTURE ANALYSIS OF PROTEIN 22
PROCEDURE
A sample (which may be solid, liquid, or gas) is ionized.
The ions are separated according to their mass-to-charge ratio. This
is the key step.
The ions are dynamically detected by some mechanism capable of
detecting energetic charged particles.
The signal is processed into the spectra(singular spectrum) of the
masses of the particles of that sample.
Pacific Networks Pacific NetworksSTRUCTURE ANALYSIS OF PROTEIN 23
MATRIX ASSISTED LASER DESORPTION
MASS SPECTROMETRY
In one, proteins are placed in a light-absorbing matrix. With a
short pulse of laser light, the proteins are ionized and then
desorbed from the matrix into the vacuum
system.
This process, known as matrix-assisted laser
desorption/ionization mass spectrometry, or MALDI MS, has
been successfully used to measure the mass of a wide range of
macromolecules.
Pacific Networks Pacific NetworksSTRUCTURE ANALYSIS OF PROTEIN 24
ELECTROSPRAY IONIZATION MASS SPECTROMETRY
Pacific Networks Pacific NetworksSTRUCTURE ANALYSIS OF PROTEIN 25
STRUCTURAL MODELING
Comparative modeling
Modeling the structure of a protein that has a high degree
of sequence identity with a protein of known structure
Must be >30% identity to have reliable structure.
Threading/fold recognition
Uses known fold structures to predict folds in primary
sequence.
Pacific Networks Pacific NetworksSTRUCTURE ANALYSIS OF PROTEIN 26
APPLICATION
Biomedical informatics
We focus on the development and application of computational methods
to investigate the molecular basis of disease, and we explore new ways to
apply the knowledge generated in improving disease prevention, diagnosis
and therapy.
Structural analysis of genetic variation
Pacific Networks Pacific NetworksSTRUCTURE ANALYSIS OF PROTEIN 27
Biological process
The three-dimensional structure and flexibility of proteins determine their function
in biological processes. Knowledge about protein structure is used in structure-based
drug design and optimization of biocatalysts. The goal of the recent years
"structural genomics" projects is to map the fold space, to make it possible to
generate a useful homology model of any protein of interest in the future.
