Homology based structure predictions

Homologous

Because we found no homologous structures in Task 2, we extended our list by using HHSearch.

HHSearch found just sequences with an indentity below 40% therefore we will use the 12 proteins shown below for creating a multiple alignment for homologous modeling. We choose sequences to cover the whole protein and we pay specific attention on the transmembrane region.

PDB-ID	Identity	Description
1s79	37%	human La protein
3p73	28%	classical MHC class I molecule
1kcg	22%	NKG2D
1jfm	14%	MURINE NK CELL LIGAND RAE-1 BETA
1bii	22%	H-2DD MHC CLASS I
2p24	21%	alphabeta TCR
1cd1	21%	MHC-like fold with a large hydrophobic binding groove
2wy3	29%	HCMV UL16-MICB complex
1lqv	14%	Endothelial protein C receptor
3jts	25%	Mamu A*2
1ow0	22%	human FcaRI
1hxm	18%	Human Vgamma9/Vdelta2 T Cell Receptor

With these Sequences including the HFE-Gen(Q30201), we did a multible sequence alignment with t-coffee(EXPRESSO). This mutlible sequence alignment is later used as a raw alignment in the Alignment Mode of SwissModel and Modeller. Later on, we will try to fit better models by editing the alignment by keeping functional regions together.

I-Tasser predicted five Models with a C-Score from -0.557 to -3.298. They are ranked from one to five as seen below.

Model 1 with a C-Score of -0.557

Model 2 with a C-Score of -2.539

Model 3 with a C-Score of -2.266

Model 4 with a C-Score of -2.772

Model 5 with a C-Score of -3.298

Model1 has a TM-Score of about 0.64 and a RMSD of 7.7Å. For the prediction, I-Tasser used 1a6zA, 1s7qA, 1i4fA, 1de4A, 2vabA and 2bckA as templates. The templates have an identity of about 40% except for the self hit 1a6z. Because of the self hit, we run I-Tasser a second time with the constrain to exclude all templates with a sequence identity > 80%.

I-Tasser using templates with a sequence identity below 80% to avoid self hits.

SwissModel

SwissProt is a server based tool provided by the SIB. It combines tools like PSI-PRED and DISOPRED for secondary structure and disordered region prediction.

The model created by SwissModel is based on a self hit, but we had no chance to exclude the protein itself from the prediction. Therefore we also run SwissModel in Alignment-Mode.(TODO)

Automated Mode

predicted model

Model information: Modelled residue range: 26 to 297
Based on template: 1a6zC (2.60 Å)
Sequence Identity [%]: 100
Evalue: 7.66e-163

Quality information: QMEAN Z-Score: -1.035

Estimated absolute model quality

Estimated density of model quality

Z-Score by category

predicted error

Even though the model is based on a self hit, the Z-Score is about -1, which means that the model is one standard deviation from the mean. The model is not quite unlikely but also not the most probable one.
