Structure Superposition


 

Keywords:  Structure superposition and superposition-derived alignment


 



 


 


Abstract

This unit discusses the concepts and practice of structural superposition.


 


This unit ...

Prerequisites

You need to complete the following units before beginning this one:


 


Objectives

This unit will ...

  • ... introduce the concepts of structural superposition;
  • ... demonstrate the outcomes of superpositions in the presence and absence of sigificant sequence similarity;
  • ... point you to servers that allow superposition-based searches for similar proteins
  • ... list tutorials for superposition with Chimera and bio3d.


 


Outcomes

After working through this unit you ...

  • ... can discover proteins that are structurally similar to a query;
  • ... can compute a structural superposition with Chimera or bio3d;
  • ... derive a superposition-based alignment.


 


Deliverables

  • Time management: Before you begin, estimate how long it will take you to complete this unit. Then, record in your course journal: the number of hours you estimated, the number of hours you worked on the unit, and the amount of time that passed between start and completion of this unit.
  • Journal: Document your progress in your Course Journal. Some tasks may ask you to include specific items in your journal. Don't overlook these.
  • Insights: If you find something particularly noteworthy about this unit, make a note in your insights! page.


 


Contents

Task:

To compute your own superpositions, explore the following tutorials ...

  • ... with Chimera: see here.
  • ... with bio3d: see here and here.
