A series of scoring functions for ranking protein structural models

Our scoring functions are based on the native distributions (derived from the entire PDB) of coordinate components of specific atoms on selected residues of peptide segments of 5, 7, 9, and 11 residues in length, rather than using traditional Boltzmann formula. Therefore, the time complexity of each method is O(n), making them very suitable for applications at early stage of structural building. For more details, please see the reference papers.

OPUS-CSF

OPUS-CSF is a fast and accurate scoring function that can be used to distinguish the native protein structures from their decoys based on the conformations of their main chains exclusively.

Performance

The results of OPUS-CSF, OPUS-SSF and OPUS-DASF on 5 decoy sets. The numbers of targets, with their native structures successfully recognized by each method, are listed in the table. The numbers in parentheses are the average Z-scores of the native structures. The larger the absolute value of Z-score, the better of our results.

TOTAL OPUS-CSF OPUS-SSF OPUS-DASF
3DRobot 200 189 (−4.86) 186 (-5.24) 183 (-5.55)
Rosetta (3DR) 58 51 (−3.83) 53 (-3.98) 52 (-3.95)
I-Tasser (3DR) 56 36 (−3.47) 38 (-3.81) 38 (-3.40)
Rosetta 58 47 (−5.43) 52 (-5.81) 47 (-4.46)
I-Tasser 56 47 (−7.70) 50 (-9.11) 49 (-8.34)

Lookup Tables

To generate the four lookup tables (containing segments of 5, 7, 9, and 11 residues in length) in each method, we downloaded the entire PDB which contains 150,742 structures from ftp://ftp.wwpdb.org/pub/pdb/data/structures/divided/pdb on May 10, 2019, and removed the structures in the test decoy sets.

The OPUS-CSF lookup tables are hosted on Baidu Drive with password yqyy. Also, they can be downloaded directly from Here.

The OPUS-DASF lookup tables are hosted on Baidu Drive with password zw80. Also, they can be downloaded directly from Here.

The OPUS-SSF lookup tables are hosted on Baidu Drive with password 9183. Also, they can be downloaded directly from Here.

Dependency

MongoDB v3.6.12
Python v3.6
pymongo v3.7.1

Usage

  1. Download the lookup tables you need and import them into your MongoDB. Then, create index. For example, you can use following scripts to import and index the csf lookup table with segments of 5 in length.

    mongoimport -d csf_db -c csf_5 --file your_path\csf_5.dat --type json
    use csf_db
    db.csf_5.ensureIndex({"key":1},{"unique":true})
    
  2. Install pymongo.

    pip install pymongo
    
  3. Set the parameters in main.py including scoring_function you would use and its corresponding database_name and collections_name in your MongoDB.

  4. Run main.py.
