CLoNe: automated clustering based on local density neighborhoods for application to biomolecular structural ensembles

Matteo Dal Peraro, Giorgio Elikem Tamo, Deniz Aydin, Martina Audagnotto, Giulia Fonti, Sylvain Träger

Motivation: Proteins are intrinsically dynamic entities. Flexibility sampling methods, such as molecular dynamics or those arising from integrative modeling strategies, are now commonplace and enable the study of molecular conformational landscapes in many ...

The Polyglutamine Expansion at the N-Terminal of Huntingtin Protein Modulates the Dynamic Configuration and Phosphorylation of the C-Terminal HEAT Domain

Matteo Dal Peraro, Giorgio Elikem Tamo, Maria Josefina Marcaida Lopez, Ruedi Aebersold

The polyQ expansion in huntingtin protein (HTT) is the prime cause of Huntington's disease (HD). The recent cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM) structure of HTT-HAP40 complex provided the structural information on its HEAT-repeat domains. Here, we present an ...

A further leap of improvement in tertiary structure prediction in CASP13 prompts new routes for future assessments

Matteo Dal Peraro, Luciano Andres Abriata, Giorgio Elikem Tamo

We present our assessment of tertiary structure predictions for hard targets in Critical Assessment of Structure Prediction round 13 (CASP13). The analysis includes (a) assignment and discussion of best models through scores-aided visual inspection of mode ...
