Discussion
Future works
• Infer homo dimeric structure of RR with two other EFF families
• DCA couplings well matched native structure
• DCA predicted additional coevolving pairs that were not seen in the native structure
• DCA couplings were seen in both REC-REC and REC-EFF areas
• The calculated frustration pattern was similar throughout native structure, highest RMSD structure and lowest RMSD structure
• Reasonable frustration pattern as a transcriptional factor

Two-component signaling (TCS) • A major mean of bacteria to sense and respond external stimuli• Consists of 2 proteins: Histidine Kinase (HK) + Response Regulator (RR)Response Regulator• Structures homo dimer to functions as a transcription factor• Consists of 2 domains: receiver domain (REC) + effector domain (EFF)• One of the 3 EFF families has anti-parallel homo dimeric structure
Structure Based Modeling
Filter couplings SASA > 50%
• Reproduce the anti-parallel dimer structure of the RR shown in prior research• Explore conformational landscape of bacterial homo dimer protein• Get deeper insights in bacterial gene expression to help drug designing
Contact map of native contacts and DCA couplings
• Scheme 4 had least fluctuation of all
• Scheme 4 showed various conformations of the dimer
• Predicted structures with high RMSD towards the native structure captured the conformational transition

• DCA predicted additional couplings in REC-REC and REC-EFF interactions as well as native contacts
• SBM-DCA simulations presented various conformations of RR homo dimer• Newly observed structures satisfy more monomeric and dimeric constraints
than native structure • Frustration analysis showed the predicted structures share similar
frustration pattern as the native one
