PDB structures selection

We first selected a set of structures that span different ranges of sequence identity to the reference structure (1A6Z). The domain A of the reference structure has the CATH annotation 3.30.500.10.9 (Murine Class I Major Histocompatibility Complex H2-DB subunit A domain 1) and the domain b 2.60.40.10 (immunoglobulins). We decided to take the domain A as template and only searched for structures with a similar annotation to 3.30.500.10.9, since the immunglobulin domain is only bound to the protein and not directly connected. Also, because the disease causing mutations are all located in the MHC domain. <xr id="sekected structures"/> list the structures, their CATH numbers and percent sequence idenity to the reference. Unfortunately, we could not find a structure with a sequence identity over 60%. The most similar structure we could find was 1qvo with 39% identity.

The pairwise sequence alignments for computing the pairwise sequence identity were constructed with Emboss Needle http://www.ebi.ac.uk/Tools/psa/emboss_needle/ using default parameters.

Results

Differenct structural alignments were applied to superimpose the reference structure to all other structures. The resulting alignments scores are specified in table ????. The numbers in bracket after the RMSD values indicate the number of aligned residues that were used to compute the corresponding value.

  • Pymol only uses a subset of atoms for the computation of the RMSD.
  • LGA computes the RMSD from all atoms under distance cutoff. It therfore uses more atoms than Pymol if the proteins are similar, but few if the structures are more divergent.
  • SSAP
  • TopMatch
  • CE
