While our proteins are functionally described in literature and during the IGEM competition, no structures are available in the protein data bank. For further work and visualizations protein structures are indispensible.  We used Yasara Structure [1]⁠  to calculate 3-dimensional structures of our proteins we used within the IGEM.

# Sequence is PSI-BLASTed against Uniprot [2]⁠
+
-
# Calculation of  a  a position-specific scoring matrix (PSSM) from related sequences
+
-
# Using the PSSM to search the PDB for potential modeling templates
+
-
# The Templates are ranked based on the alignment score and the structural quality[3]⁠
+
-
# Deriving additional information’s  for template and target (prediction of secondary structure, structure-based alignment correction by using SSALN scoring matrices [4]⁠.
+
-
# A graph of the side-chain rotamer network is built, dead-end elimination is used to find an initial rotamer solution in the context of a simple repulsive energy function [5]⁠
+
-
# The loop-network is optimized using a high amount of different orientations
+
-
# Side-chain rotamers are fine-tuned considering electrostatic and knowledge-based packing interactions as well as solvation effects.
+
-
# An unrestrained high-resolution refinement with explicit solvent molecules is run, using the latest knowledge-based force fields[6]⁠.
+
-
===Application===
+
-
All these steps are performed to every template used for the modeling approach. For our project we set the maximum amount of templates to 20. Every derived structure is evaluated using an average per-residue quality Z-scores. At least a hybrid model is built containing the best regions of all predictions. This procedure make prediction’s accurate and thus more realistic.

===Theory===
+
-
Nearly all biologically important processes such as enzyme catalysis,ligand binding and allosteric regulation occur on a large time-scale (micro- to millisecond). A Gaussian network model (GNM) is  a coarse-grained  representation of a protein as an network consisting of  balls and springs. In our approach, proteins are represented by balls corresponding to the CA –atom of each residue[1]⁠ . While Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations  are computational expensive,  a GNM calculation only needs a few seconds.
+
-
 
+
-
===Computation===
+
-
The dynamics of the structure in the GNM is described by the topology of contacts within the Kirchhoff matrix G. Thus in this  network of N interacting sites, the elements of G are computed as:
+

+

+
-
where Rij is the distance between point i and j. We used Gamma as  the intra CA-contact matrix. The inverse of it describes correlations between fluctuations within the proteins native state. The diagonal of the matrix is replaced by the sum of contacts of one CA-atom within the whole protein. After a singular value decomposition (SVD) we have calculated the normal modes of the protein. Slow modes describe functionally relevant residues within a biomolecule[2]⁠. The opposite,  Fast modes, represent an uncorrelated motion without significant changes in the structure.

+
-
 
+
-
A recent examination of the X-ray crystallographic B-factors of over 100 proteins showed that the GNM closely reproduces the experimental data [3]⁠.
+
-
===Application to our Proteins===
+
-
We computed the GNM in [https://2012.igem.org/Team:TU_Darmstadt/Protocols/R_Programming R] [4]⁠ by using the BioPhysConnectoR [5]⁠ library.
