Myoglobin – the first high resolution protein structure
Solved in 1958 by Max Perutz John Kendrew of Cambridge University.
Won the 1962 and Nobel Prize in Chemistry.
“ Perhaps the most remarkable features of the molecule are its
complexity and its lack of symmetry. The arrangement seems to
be almost totally lacking in the kind of regularities which one
instinctively anticipates.”

Why Proteins Structure ?
 Proteins are fundamental components of all living
cells, performing a variety of biological tasks.
 Each protein has a particular 3D structure that
determines its function.
 Protein structure is more conserved than protein
sequence , and more closely related to function.
5
There Are Four Levels of Protein Structure
Primary: amino acid linear
sequence.
Tertiary: the 3D shape of the
fully folded polypeptide chain
Secondary: -helices,
β-sheets and loops.
Quaternary: arrangement of
several polypeptide chains.

Secondary Structure
Secondary structure is usually divided into
three categories:
Alpha helix
Beta strand (sheet)
Anything else –
turn/loop
8
Alpha Helix: Pauling (1951)
• A consecutive stretch of 5-40 amino
acids (average 10).
• A right-handed spiral conformation.
• 3.6 amino acids per turn.
3.6
residues
5.6 Å
• Stabilized by H-bonds in the
backbone between C=O of residue n,
and NH of residue n+4.
• Side-chains point out.
9
Beta Strand: Pauling and Corey (1951)
•
Different polypeptide chains run alongside each
other and are linked together by hydrogen bonds.
• Each section is called β -strand,
and consists of 5-10 amino acids.

3.25Å
The strands become
adjacent to each other,
forming beta-sheet.

11
Loops
• Connect the secondary
structure elements.
• Have various length and
shapes.
• Located at the surface of
the folded protein and
therefore may have
important role in
biological recognition
processes.
• Proteins that are
evolutionary related have
the same helices & sheets
but may vary in loop
structures.
12
How is the 3D Structure Determined ?
1. Experimental methods (Best approach):
•
X-rays crystallography.
• NMR.
• Others.
2. In-silico methods (partial solutions based on similarity):.
• Threading - needs a 3D structure, combinatorial complexity.
• Ab-initio structure prediction - not always successful.
13
X-ray crystallography
1. Obtain an ordered protein crystal.
2. Check x-ray diffraction.
The crystal is bombarded
with X-ray beams.
The collision of the beams
with the electrons creates
14
a diffraction pattern.
X-ray crystallography
3. Analyze diffraction pattern and produce an
electron density map.
4. Thread the known protein sequence into the
density map.
15
X-ray crystallography
• The molecules must be very pure in order to
produce perfect and stable crystals.
• The method is time-consuming and
difficult.
16
NMR - Nuclear Magnetic
Resonance (since 1945)
• A sample is immersed in a magnetic field
and bombarded with radio waves.
• The molecule’s nucleus resonate (spin).
This motion is determined and is specific
for each molecule type.
17
Principles of NMR
18
NMR - Nuclear Magnetic
Resonance
• The NMR technique is very time
consuming and expensive, and the sample
has to be in a concentrated solution, and is
limited to small and soluble molecules.
19
PDB: Protein Data Bank
• Holds 3D models of biological macromolecules (protein,
RNA, DNA).
• All data are available to the public.
• Obtained by X-Ray crystallography (84%) or NMR
spectroscopy (16%).
• Submitted by biologists and biochemists from around the
world.

22
Structure Prediction: Motivation
• Hundreds of thousands of gene sequences translated to
proteins (genbanbk, SW, PIR)
• Only about 28000 solved structures (PDB)
Experimental methods are time consuming and not
always posible
• Goal: Predict protein structure based
on sequence information
23
Structure Prediction: Motivation
• Understand protein function
– Locate binding sites
• Broaden homology
– Detect similar function where sequence differs
• Explain disease
– See effect of amino acid changes
– Design suitable compensatory drugs
24
Prediction Approaches
• Primary (sequence) to secondary structure
– Sequence characteristics
• Secondary to tertiary structure
– Fold recognition
– Threading against known structures
• Primary to tertiary structure
– Ab initio modelling
25
Can we predict the secondary structure from sequence ?

Non-polar
Secondary structures have an amphiphilic nature :
one face polar and the other non polar
26
Secondary Structure Prediction
Methods
• Chou-Fasman / GOR Method
– Based on amino acid frequencies
• Artificial Neural Network (ANN) methods
– PHDsec and PSIpred
• HMM (Hidden Markov Model)
• Best accuracy now ~80%
27
Chou and Fasman (1974)
The propensity of an amino
acid to be part of a certain
secondary structure (e.g. –
Proline has a low
propensity of being in an
alpha helix or beta sheet 
breaker)

Secondary Structure Method
Improvements
‘Sliding window’ approach
• Most alpha helices are ~12 residues long
Most beta strands are ~6 residues long
 Look at all windows of size 6/12
 Calculate a score for each window. If >threshold
 predict this is an alpha helix/beta sheet

29
Improvements in the 1980’s
• Adding information from conservation in
MSA
• Smarter algorithms (e.g. HMM, neural
networks).
Success -> ~80%

PHDsec and PSIpred
• PHDsec
– Rost & Sander, 1993
– Based on sequence family alignments
• PSIpred
– Jones, 1999
– Based on Position Specific Scoring Matrix
Generated by PSI-BLAST
• Both consider long-range interactions
31
HMM
• HMM enables us to calculate the
probability of assigning a sequence of
hidden states to the observation
