Homology Modeling
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 indispensable. We used Yasara Structure [1] to calculate 3-dimensional structures of all of our proteins for the IGEM.
Workflow
Description how our Yasara script calculates homology model[7]:
- Sequence is PSI-BLASTed against Uniprot [2]
- Calculation of 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 last a hybrid model is built containing the best regions of all predictions. This procedure make prediction’s accurate and thus more realistic. For the evaluation we used the Yasara Z-scores.A Z-score describes how many standard deviations the model quality is away from the average high-resolution X-ray structure. Negative values indicate that the homology model looks worse than a high-resolution X-ray structure. The overall Z-scores for all models have been calculated as the weighted averages of the individual Z-scores using the formula Overall = 0.145*Dihedrals + 0.390*Packing1D + 0.465*Packing3D [7].
Parameters
We used the Yasara script hm_build.mcr for the model creation with the following parameters:
- Modeling speed (slow = best): Slow
- Number of PSI-BLAST iterations in template search (PsiBLASTs): 3
- Maximum allowed PSI-BLAST E-value to consider template (EValue Max): 0.5
- Maximum number of templates to be used (Templates Total): 20
- Maximum number of templates with same sequence (Templates SameSeq): 1
- Maximum oligomerization state (OligoState): 4 (tetrameric)
- Maximum number of alignment variations per template: (Alignments): 5
- Maximum number of conformations tried per loop (LoopSamples): 50
- Maximum number of residues added to the termini (TermExtension): 10
Results
PnB-Esterase 13
The target sequence of the PnB-Esterase 13 contains 490 residues in 1 molecule. Hence the target sequence was the only available information we identified modeling templates by running various PSI-BLAST iterations. We used [http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/explore/explore.do?structureId=1c7j 1C7J] chain A (PNB ESTERASE 56C8), [http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/explore/explore.do?structureId=1qe3 1QE3] (PNB ESTERASE) chain B, [http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/explore/explore.do?structureId=1C7I 1C7I] (THERMOPHYLIC PNB ESTERASE) chain A and 50 more! Unfortunately, our hybrid model could not be improved by copying parts from other models.
Here we show our hybrid homology model of our protein, the PnB-Esterase 13 in ribbon representation. Furthermore we illustrate the average quality z-score as a function of residue number. Nevertheless it was subjected to a final round of simulated annealing minimization in explicit solvent and obtained the following quality Z-scores:
Check type | Quality Z-score | Comment |
---|---|---|
Dihedrals | -0.201 | Optimal |
Packing 1D | -0.834 | Good |
Packing 3D | -1.106 | Satisfactory |
Overall | -0.661 | Good |
Hence we constructed a homology model we are able to localize a possible disulfide bond between CYS 80 and CYS 61 (highlighted in the structure above). The green ball is a magnesia ion. For the identification of the active site visit our information theory section. Moreover, we quantified mechanical properties with a GNM .
AroY
The target sequence of the [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_K808014 AroY] contains 490 residues in 1 molecule. Unfortunately, we found only one model template in the protein database. We used [http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/explore/explore.do?structureId=2IDB 2IDB] chain A, with a cover of 91%.
Here we show the hybrid homology model of our protein, [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_K808014 AroY] in ribbon representation with transparent surface. The average quality z-score is illustrated as a function of residue number. The overall results are listed in the tabular below.

---|---|---|
Dihedrals | 0.454 | Optimal |
Packing 1D | -2.814 | Poor |
Packing 3D | -2.382 | Poor |
Overall | -2.139 | Poor |
Since the overall quality Z-scores was ranked poor by Yasara we refined the bonding-network and applied a simulated annealing energy minimization. The experimental results, obtained from the metabolism group, shown that [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_K808014 AroY] is an homo pentamer. Hence the template we used was a hetero trimer, we can explain the poor model scoring. Moreover, we quantified mechanical properties with a GNM.
TphA1
The target sequence of the [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_K808011 TphA1] contains 336 residues in one molecule. Hence the target sequence was the only available information we identified modeling templates by running various PSI-BLAST iterations. We used [http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/explore/explore.do?structureId=1KRH 1KRH] (Rieske dioxygenase reductase) chains A to F as modeling templates, with 97% cover. Additionally we created a hybrid model out of the best parts of all models. Since this hybrid model scored better than all previous models, it was chosen as our homology model.
Here we show our hybrid homology model of our protein, the [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_K808011 TphA1] in ribbon representation with a transparent molecular surface. Hence Rieske dioxygenase reductase are iron-sulfur protein (ISP) we focused on rebuilding the iron-sulfur cluster. Furthermore, we illustrate the average quality z-score as a function of residue number. The average scores, we obtained from Yasara, from our model seems to be satisfying.
