Using Integrative Modeling Platform to compute, validate, and archive a model of a protein complex structure.

ABSTRACT: Biology is advanced by producing structural models of biological systems, such as protein complexes. Some systems are recalcitrant to traditional structure determination methods. In such cases, it may still be possible to produce useful models by integrative structure determination that depends on simultaneous use of multiple types of data. An ensemble of models that are sufficiently consistent with the data is produced by a structural sampling method guided by a data-dependent scoring function. The variation in the ensemble of models quantified the uncertainty of the structure, generally resulting from the uncertainty in the input information and actual structural heterogeneity in the samples used to produce the data. Here, we describe how to generate, assess, and interpret ensembles of integrative structural models using our open source Integrative Modeling Platform program (https://integrativemodeling.org).

Integrative structure modeling with the Integrative Modeling Platform.

Project description:Building models of a biological system that are consistent with the myriad data available is one of the key challenges in biology. Modeling the structure and dynamics of macromolecular assemblies, for example, can give insights into how biological systems work, evolved, might be controlled, and even designed. Integrative structure modeling casts the building of structural models as a computational optimization problem, for which information about the assembly is encoded into a scoring function that evaluates candidate models. Here, we describe our open source software suite for integrative structure modeling, Integrative Modeling Platform (https://integrativemodeling.org), and demonstrate its use.

Integrative Modeling of a Sin3/HDAC Complex Sub-structure.

Project description:Sin3/HDAC complexes function by deacetylating histones, condensing chromatin, and modulating gene expression. Although components used to build these complexes have been well defined, we still have only a limited understanding of the structure of the Sin3/HDAC subunits assembled around the scaffolding protein SIN3A. To characterize the spatial arrangement of Sin3 subunits, we combined Halo affinity capture, chemical crosslinking, and high-resolution mass spectrometry (XL-MS) to determine intersubunit distance constraints, identifying 66 interprotein and 63 self-crosslinks for 13 Sin3 subunits. Having assessed crosslink authenticity by mapping self-crosslinks onto existing structures, we used distance restraints from interprotein crosslinks to guide assembly of a Sin3 complex substructure. We identified the relative positions of subunits SAP30L, HDAC1, SUDS3, HDAC2, and ING1 around the SIN3A scaffold. The architecture of this subassembly suggests that multiple factors have space to assemble to collectively influence the behavior of the catalytic subunit HDAC1.

Optimizing representations for integrative structural modeling using Bayesian model selection.

Project description:MotivationIntegrative structural modeling combines data from experiments, physical principles, statistics of previous structures, and prior models to obtain structures of macromolecular assemblies that are challenging to characterize experimentally. The choice of model representation is a key decision in integrative modeling, as it dictates the accuracy of scoring, efficiency of sampling, and resolution of analysis. But currently, the choice is usually made ad hoc, manually.ResultsHere, we report NestOR (Nested Sampling for Optimizing Representation), a fully automated, statistically rigorous method based on Bayesian model selection to identify the optimal coarse-grained representation for a given integrative modeling setup. Given an integrative modeling setup, it determines the optimal representations from given candidate representations based on their model evidence and sampling efficiency. The performance of NestOR was evaluated on a benchmark of four macromolecular assemblies.AvailabilityNestOR is implemented in the Integrative Modeling Platform (https://integrativemodeling.org) and is available at https://github.com/isblab/nestor.

The Biological Structure Model Archive (BSM-Arc): an archive for in silico models and simulations.

Project description:We present the Biological Structure Model Archive (BSM-Arc, https://bsma.pdbj.org), which aims to collect raw data obtained via in silico methods related to structural biology, such as computationally modeled 3D structures and molecular dynamics trajectories. Since BSM-Arc does not enforce a specific data format for the raw data, depositors are free to upload their data without any prior conversion. Besides uploading raw data, BSM-Arc enables depositors to annotate their data with additional explanations and figures. Furthermore, via our WebGL-based molecular viewer Molmil, it is possible to recreate 3D scenes as shown in the corresponding scientific article in an interactive manner. To submit a new entry, depositors require an ORCID ID to login, and to finally publish the data, an accompanying peer-reviewed paper describing the work must be associated with the entry. Submitting their data enables researchers to not only have an external backup but also provide an opportunity to promote their work via an interactive platform and to provide third-party researchers access to their raw data.

MMM: A toolbox for integrative structure modeling.

Project description:Structural characterization of proteins and their complexes may require integration of restraints from various experimental techniques. MMM (Multiscale Modeling of Macromolecules) is a Matlab-based open-source modeling toolbox for this purpose with a particular emphasis on distance distribution restraints obtained from electron paramagnetic resonance experiments on spin-labelled proteins and nucleic acids and their combination with atomistic structures of domains or whole protomers, small-angle scattering data, secondary structure information, homology information, and elastic network models. MMM does not only integrate various types of restraints, but also various existing modeling tools by providing a common graphical user interface to them. The types of restraints that can support such modeling and the available model types are illustrated by recent application examples.

Integrative modeling of the HIV-1 ribonucleoprotein complex.

Project description:A coarse-grain computational method integrates biophysical and structural data to generate models of HIV-1 genomic RNA, nucleocapsid and integrase condensed into a mature ribonucleoprotein complex. Several hypotheses for the initial structure of the genomic RNA and oligomeric state of integrase are tested. In these models, integrase interaction captures features of the relative distribution of gRNA in the immature virion and increases the size of the RNP globule, and exclusion of nucleocapsid from regions with RNA secondary structure drives an asymmetric placement of the dimerized 5'UTR at the surface of the RNP globule.

A Structural Model of the Urease Activation Complex Derived from Ion Mobility-Mass Spectrometry and Integrative Modeling.

Project description:The synthesis of active Klebsiella aerogenes urease via an 18-subunit enzyme apoprotein-accessory protein pre-activation complex has been well studied biochemically, but thus far this complex has remained refractory to direct structural characterization. Using ion mobility-mass spectrometry, we characterized several protein complexes between the core urease apoprotein and its accessory proteins, including the 610-kDa (UreABC)3(UreDFG)3 complex. Using our recently developed computational modeling workflow, we generated ensembles of putative (UreABC)3(UreDFG)3 species consistent with experimental restraints and characterized the structural ambiguity present in these models. By integrating structural information from previous studies, we increased the resolution of the ion mobility-mass spectrometry-derived models substantially, and we observe a discrete population of structures consistent with all of the available data for this complex.

Integrative structure modeling of macromolecular assemblies from proteomics data.

Project description:Proteomics techniques have been used to generate comprehensive lists of protein interactions in a number of species. However, relatively little is known about how these interactions result in functional multiprotein complexes. This gap can be bridged by combining data from proteomics experiments with data from established structure determination techniques. Correspondingly, integrative computational methods are being developed to provide descriptions of protein complexes at varying levels of accuracy and resolution, ranging from complex compositions to detailed atomic structures.

Integrative modeling of multi-platform genomic data under the framework of mediation analysis.

Project description:Given the availability of genomic data, there have been emerging interests in integrating multi-platform data. Here, we propose to model genetics (single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)), epigenetics (DNA methylation), and gene expression data as a biological process to delineate phenotypic traits under the framework of causal mediation modeling. We propose a regression model for the joint effect of SNPs, methylation, gene expression, and their nonlinear interactions on the outcome and develop a variance component score test for any arbitrary set of regression coefficients. The test statistic under the null follows a mixture of chi-square distributions, which can be approximated using a characteristic function inversion method or a perturbation procedure. We construct tests for candidate models determined by different combinations of SNPs, DNA methylation, gene expression, and interactions and further propose an omnibus test to accommodate different models. We then study three path-specific effects: the direct effect of SNPs on the outcome, the effect mediated through expression, and the effect through methylation. We characterize correspondences between the three path-specific effects and coefficients in the regression model, which are influenced by causal relations among SNPs, DNA methylation, and gene expression. We illustrate the utility of our method in two genomic studies and numerical simulation studies.

Integrative genome modeling platform reveals essentiality of rare contact events in 3D genome organizations.

Project description:A multitude of sequencing-based and microscopy technologies provide the means to unravel the relationship between the three-dimensional organization of genomes and key regulatory processes of genome function. Here, we develop a multimodal data integration approach to produce populations of single-cell genome structures that are highly predictive for nuclear locations of genes and nuclear bodies, local chromatin compaction and spatial segregation of functionally related chromatin. We demonstrate that multimodal data integration can compensate for systematic errors in some of the data and can greatly increase accuracy and coverage of genome structure models. We also show that alternative combinations of different orthogonal data sources can converge to models with similar predictive power. Moreover, our study reveals the key contributions of low-frequency ('rare') interchromosomal contacts to accurately predicting the global nuclear architecture, including the positioning of genes and chromosomes. Overall, our results highlight the benefits of multimodal data integration for genome structure analysis, available through the Integrative Genome Modeling software package.
