Protein Secondary Structures

Protein structure prediction is one of the important goals in the area of bioinformatics and biotechnology. Prediction methods include structure prediction of both secondary and tertiary structures of protein. Protein secondary structure prediction infers knowledge related to presence of helixes, sheets and coils in a polypeptide chain whereas protein tertiary structure prediction infers knowledge related to three dimensional structures of proteins. Protein secondary structures represent the possible motifs or regular expressions represented as patterns that are predicted from primary protein sequence in the form of alpha helix, betastr and and coils. The secondary structure prediction is useful as it infers information related to the structure and function of unknown protein sequence. There are various secondary structure prediction methods used to predict about helixes, sheets and coils. Based on these methods there are various prediction tools under study. This study includes prediction of hemoglobin using various tools. The results produced inferred knowledge with reference to percentage of amino acids participating to produce helices, sheets and coils. PHD and DSC produced the best of the results out of all the tools used.

Ionic Bond

Proteins are made up of basic units called amino acids which are held together by bonds namely hydrogen and ionic bond. The way in which the amino acids are sequenced has been categorized into two dimensional and three dimensional structures. The main advantage of predicting secondary structure is to produce tertiary structure likelihoods that are in great demand for continuous detection of proteins. This paper reviews the different methods adopted for predicting the protein secondary structure and provides a comparative analysis of accuracies obtained from various input datasets [1].

AbstractMotivationAccurate prediction of protein secondary structure (alpha-helix, beta-strand and coil) is a crucial step for protein inter-residue contact prediction and ab initio tertiary structure prediction. In a previous study, we developed a deep belief network-based protein secondary structure method (DNSS1) and successfully advanced the prediction accuracy beyond 80%. In this work, we developed multiple advanced deep learning architectures (DNSS2) to further improve secondary structure prediction.ResultsThe major improvements over the DNSS1 method include (i) designing and integrating six advanced one-dimensional deep convolutional/recurrent/residual/memory/fractal/inception networks to predict secondary structure, and (ii) using more sensitive profile features inferred from Hidden Markov model (HMM) and multiple sequence alignment (MSA). Most of the deep learning architectures are novel for protein secondary structure prediction. DNSS2 was systematically benchmarked on two independent test datasets with eight state-of-art tools and consistently ranked as one of the best methods. Particularly, DNSS2 was tested on the 82 protein targets of 2018 CASP13 experiment and achieved the best Q3 score of 83.74% and SOV score of 72.46%.

Accurate determination of protein secondary structure from the chemical shift information is a key step for NMR tertiary structure determination. Relatively few work has been done on this subject. There needs to be a systematic investigation of algorithms that are (a) robust for large datasets; (b) easily extendable to (the dynamic) new databases; and (c) approaching to the limit of accuracy. We introduce new approaches using k-nearest neighbor algorithm to do the basic prediction and use the BCJR algorithm to smooth the predictions and combine different predictions from chemical shifts and based on sequence information only. Our new system, SUCCES, improves the accuracy of all existing methods on a large dataset of 805 proteins (at 86% Q3 accuracy and at 92.6% accuracy when the boundary residues are ignored), and it is easily extendable to any new dataset without requiring any new training. The software is publicly available at .

AbstractProtein secondary structure is crucial to create an information bridge between the primary structure and the tertiary (3D) structure. Precise prediction of 8-state protein secondary structure (PSS) significantly utilized in the structural and functional analysis of proteins in bioinformatics. In this recent period, deep learning techniques have been applied in this research area and raise the Q8 accuracy remarkably. Nevertheless, from a theoretical standpoint, there still lots of room for improvement, specifically in 8-state (Q8) protein secondary structure prediction. In this paper, we presented two deep learning architecture, namely 1D-Inception and BD-LSTM, to improve the performance of 8-classes PSS prediction. The input of these two architectures is a carefully constructed feature matrix from the sequence features and profile features of the proteins. Firstly, 1D-Inception is a Deep convolutional neural network-based approach that was inspired by the InceptionV3 model and containing three inception modules. Secondly, BD-LSTM is a recurrent neural network model which including bidirectional LSTM layers. Our proposed 1D-Inception method achieved 76.65%, 71.18%, 76.86%, and 74.07% Q8 accuracy respectively on benchmark CullPdb6133, CB513, CASP10, and CASP11 datasets. Moreover, BD-LSTM acquired 74.71%, 69.49%, 74.07%, and 72.37% state-8 accuracy after evaluated on CullPdb6133, CB513, CASP10, and CASP11 datasets, respectively. Both these architectures enable the efficient processing of local and global interdependencies between amino acids to make an accurate prediction of each class is very beneficial in the deep neural network. To the best of our knowledge, experiment results of the 1D-Inception model demonstrate that it outperformed all the state-of-art methods on the benchmark CullPdb6133, CB513, and CASP10 datasets.

Background: Protein secondary structure prediction (PSSP) is a fundamental task in bioinformatics that is helpful for understanding the three-dimensional structure and biological function of proteins. Many neural network-based prediction methods have been developed for protein secondary structures. Deep learning and multiple features are two obvious means to improve prediction accuracy. Objective: To promote the development of PSSP, a deep convolutional neural network-based method is proposed to predict both the eight-state and three-state of protein secondary structure. Methods: In this model, sequence and evolutionary information of proteins are combined as multiple input features after preprocessing. A deep convolutional neural network with no pooling layer and connection layer is then constructed to predict the secondary structure of proteins. L2 regularization, batch normalization, and dropout techniques are employed to avoid over-fitting and obtain better prediction performance, and an improved cross-entropy is used as the loss function. Results: Our proposed model can obtain Q3 prediction results of 86.2%, 84.5%, 87.8%, and 84.7%, respectively, on CullPDB, CB513, CASP10 and CASP11 datasets, with corresponding Q8 prediction results of 74.1%, 70.5%, 74.9%, and 71.3%. Conclusion: We have proposed the DCNN-SS deep convolutional-network-based PSSP method, and experimental results show that DCNN-SS performs competitively with other methods.

Abstract Background The formation of contacts among protein secondary structure elements (SSEs) is an important step in protein folding as it determines topology of protein tertiary structure; hence, inferring inter-SSE contacts is crucial to protein structure prediction. One of the existing strategies infers inter-SSE contacts directly from the predicted possibilities of inter-residue contacts without any preprocessing, and thus suffers from the excessive noises existing in the predicted inter-residue contacts. Another strategy defines SSEs based on protein secondary structure prediction first, and then judges whether each candidate SSE pair could form contact or not. However, it is difficult to accurately determine boundary of SSEs due to the errors in secondary structure prediction. The incorrectly-deduced SSEs definitely hinder subsequent prediction of the contacts among them. Results We here report an accurate approach to infer the inter-SSE contacts (thus called as ISSEC) using the deep object detection technique. The design of ISSEC is based on the observation that, in the inter-residue contact map, the contacting SSEs usually form rectangle regions with characteristic patterns. Therefore, ISSEC infers inter-SSE contacts through detecting such rectangle regions. Unlike the existing approach directly using the predicted probabilities of inter-residue contact, ISSEC applies the deep convolution technique to extract high-level features from the inter-residue contacts. More importantly, ISSEC does not rely on the pre-defined SSEs. Instead, ISSEC enumerates multiple candidate rectangle regions in the predicted inter-residue contact map, and for each region, ISSEC calculates a confidence score to measure whether it has characteristic patterns or not. ISSEC employs greedy strategy to select non-overlapping regions with high confidence score, and finally infers inter-SSE contacts according to these regions. Conclusions Comprehensive experimental results suggested that ISSEC outperformed the state-of-the-art approaches in predicting inter-SSE contacts. We further demonstrated the successful applications of ISSEC to improve prediction of both inter-residue contacts and tertiary structure as well.
