Abstract:
A comprehensive study was undertaken for <i>ab initio </i>protein fold prediction using a fully atomistic protein model and a physicochemical potential. Twenty four EA designs where initially assessed on polyalanine, a prototypical α-helical polypeptide.  Design aspects varied include the encoding alphabet, crossover operator, replacement strategy and selection strategy. By undertaking a comprehensive parameter study, the best performing designs and associated control parameter values were identified for polyalanine. The scaling between the performance and polyalinine size was also identified

At the time of the 50th anniversary of the Kohn-Sham method, ab initio calculations based on density functional theory have formed an accurate, efficient, and reliable method to work on the properties of engineering materials.

Proteins are among the most important groups of biomolecules, with their biological functions ranging from structural elements to signal transducers between cells. Apart from their biological role, phenomena related to protein behaviour in solutions and at solid interfaces can find a broad range of engineering applications such as in biomedical implants, scaffolds for artificial tissues, bioseparations, biomineralization and biosensors. For both biological and engineering applications, the functionality of a protein is directly related to its three-dimensional structure (i.e. conformation). Me

A metagenome originated from a shotgun sequencing of a microbial community is a heterogeneous mixture of rather short sequences. A vast majority of microbial species in a given community (99%) are likely to be non-cultivable. Many protein-coding regions in a new metagenome are likely to code for barely detectable homologs of already known proteins. Therefore, an ab initio method that would accurately identify the new genes is a vitally important tool of metagenomic sequence analysis.

Les protéines transmembranaires canaux-β (TMBs) se trouvent dans les membranes externes des bactéries à Gram négatif, des mitochondries ainsi que des chloroplastes. Elles traversent entièrement la membrane cellulaire et exercent différentes fonctions importantes. Vu qu'il y a un petit nombre des structures des TMBs déterminées, en raison des difficultés avec les méthodes expérimentales, il est douteux que ces approches puis- sent bien trouver et prédire les TMBs qui ne sont pas homologues avec celles connues.

Abstract:
Recent breakthroughs in DNA and protein sequencing have unlocked many secrets of molecular biology. A complete understanding of gene function, however, requires a protein structure in addition to its sequence. Modern protein structure determination methods such as NMR, cryo-EM and X-ray crystallography are woefully unable to keep pace with automated sequencing techniques, creating a serious gap between available sequences and structures. This thesis describes several ab initio computational methods designed in the near-term to facilitate structure determination experiments, and in the long-te

Abstract:
Protein structure prediction is concerned with the prediction of a protein's three dimensional structure from its amino acid sequence. Such predictions are commonly performed by searching the possible structures and evaluating each structure by using some scoring function. If it is assumed that the target protein structure resembles the structure of a known protein, the search space can be significantly reduced. Such an approach is referred to as comparative structure prediction. When such an assumption is not made, the approach is known as ab initio structure prediction. There are several dif

碩士<br>國立臺灣大學<br>生物產業機電工程學研究所<br>96<br>The basic units of all kinds of organisms are proteins. In order to learn more about the protein function, scientists try to understand proteins from different points of view, including protein sequence, protein structure, location of functional residues, and so forth. In the fields of computational biology, the prediction of protein structure has always been the core issue that researchers indefatigably focus on. It has never been easy to tell the protein structure merely through protein sequence; hence methods for predicting the structures are being deve

Abstract:
Nell'ultimo decennio, l'aumento dell’efficienza e la diminuzione del costo delle nuove tecniche di sequenziamento ha portato ad un accumulo di sequenze genomiche nei database pubblici. Con questa enorme quantità di sequenze a disposizione, la necessità di generare delle annotazioni precise e dettagliate non è mai stata così grande. L’annotazione strutturale del genoma è il processo di identificazione di elementi strutturali in una sequenza di DNA, classificandoli in base al loro ruolo biologico. L’approccio computazionale viene sempre più utilizzato per poter eseguire l'annotazione strutturale
