residue-residue contacts in proteins
a contact in a proteinResidues i and j are in contact if
distance(Cβi, Cβj) ≤ 8 Å
Variations:- use of Cα instead of Cβ- other thresholds like 7 Å or 12 Å- minimum sequence separation of
5 or 6 residues
# of contacts and threshold
at 8 Å threshold at 12 Å threshold at 20 Å threshold
building 3D models using predicted contacts
EVFOLD vs FRAGFOLD
to use, or not to use fragments,- that is the question.

1. Reconstruct secondary structuresreconstruct Helices and beta-sheets
2. Handle noise in predicted contactsIf we try to satisfy all contacts,the model can easily jumble up
ab initio - Challenges
CONFOLD method- convert secondary structures in to distance,
angle and h-bond restraints- combine contact restraints and secondary
structure restraints using weighting schemes- use of customized CNS suite v1.3 for modelling- two stage model-building method
- improves beta-sheet quality- improves accuracy of models
build 3D
models
translate using derived restraints
restraints - dihedral - distance - h-bonds
restraints - distance
secondary
structure
contacts
select all or top-xL contacts
build 3D
models
restraints (updated) - dihedral - distance - h-bonds
restraints (filtered) - distance
weights
detect β-sheets
filter unsatisfied contacts
Results
Reconstructing Secondary Structures
Helix residues- 77 out of 79 on averageStrand residues- 33 out of 42 on average
Data Set:24 proteins in Tc category of CASP11

Evaluation of all models
How does the two-stage idea work?
stage 1 stage 2TM-score = 0.5 TM-score = 0.61
Conclusion• We can reconstruct secondary structures, helices
and beta-sheets, in proteins from scratch, very well
• Existing ab inito methods for building 3D models using contacts can be improved
• Two-stage model building approach can improve models’ accuracy by removing noisy contacts
