Classification of protein domains based on their three-dimensional shapes (CPD3DS).

ABSTRACT: Protein design has become a powerful method to expand the number of natural proteins and design customized proteins according to demands. Domain-based protein design spares the need to create novel elements from scratch, which makes it a more efficient strategy than scratch-based protein design in designing multi-domain proteins, protein complexes and biomaterials. As the surface shape plays a central role in domain-domain and protein-protein interactions, a global map of the surface shapes of all domains should be very beneficial for domain-based protein design. Therefore, in this study, we characterized the surface shapes of protein domains, collected from CATH and SCOP databases, with their 3D-Zernike descriptors (3DZDs). Then similarities of domain shape features were identified, and all domains were classified accordingly. The preferences of the combinations of domains between different clusters were analyzed in natural proteins from the Protein Data Bank. A user-friendly website, termed CPD3DS, was also developed for storage, retrieval, analyses and visualization of our results. This work not only provides an overall view of protein domain shapes by showing their variety and similarities, but also opens up a new avenue to understand the properties of protein structural domains, and design principles of protein architectures.

Dali/FSSP classification of three-dimensional protein folds.

Project description:The FSSP database presents a continuously updated structural classification of three-dimensional protein folds. It is derived using an automatic structure comparison program (Dali) for the all-against-all comparison of over 6000 three-dimensional coordinate sets in the Protein Data Bank (PDB). Sequence-related protein families are covered by a representative set of 813 protein chains. Hierachical clustering based on structural similarities yields a fold tree that defines 253 fold classes. For each representative protein chain, there is a database entry containing structure-structure alignments with its structural neighbours in the PDB. The database is accessible online through World Wide Web browsers and by anonymous ftp (file transfer protocol). The overview of fold space and the individual data sets provide a rich source of information for the study of both divergent and convergent aspects of molecular evolution, and define useful test sets and a standard of truth for assessing the correctness of sequence-sequence or sequence-structure alignments.

Improving Protein Subcellular Location Classification by Incorporating Three-Dimensional Structure Information.

Project description:The subcellular locations of proteins are closely related to their functions. In the past few decades, the application of machine learning algorithms to predict protein subcellular locations has been an important topic in proteomics. However, most studies in this field used only amino acid sequences as the data source. Only a few works focused on other protein data types. For example, three-dimensional structures, which contain far more functional protein information than sequences, remain to be explored. In this work, we extracted various handcrafted features to describe the protein structures from physical, chemical, and topological aspects, as well as the learned features obtained by deep neural networks. We then used these features to classify the protein subcellular locations. Our experimental results demonstrated that some of these structural features have a certain effect on the protein location classification, and can help improve the performance of sequence-based location predictors. Our method provides a new view for the analysis of protein spatial distribution, and is anticipated to be used in revealing the relationships between protein structures and functions.

Self-assembly of DNA into nanoscale three-dimensional shapes.

Project description:Molecular self-assembly offers a 'bottom-up' route to fabrication with subnanometre precision of complex structures from simple components. DNA has proved to be a versatile building block for programmable construction of such objects, including two-dimensional crystals, nanotubes, and three-dimensional wireframe nanopolyhedra. Templated self-assembly of DNA into custom two-dimensional shapes on the megadalton scale has been demonstrated previously with a multiple-kilobase 'scaffold strand' that is folded into a flat array of antiparallel helices by interactions with hundreds of oligonucleotide 'staple strands'. Here we extend this method to building custom three-dimensional shapes formed as pleated layers of helices constrained to a honeycomb lattice. We demonstrate the design and assembly of nanostructures approximating six shapes-monolith, square nut, railed bridge, genie bottle, stacked cross, slotted cross-with precisely controlled dimensions ranging from 10 to 100 nm. We also show hierarchical assembly of structures such as homomultimeric linear tracks and heterotrimeric wireframe icosahedra. Proper assembly requires week-long folding times and calibrated monovalent and divalent cation concentrations. We anticipate that our strategy for self-assembling custom three-dimensional shapes will provide a general route to the manufacture of sophisticated devices bearing features on the nanometre scale.

RR3DD: an RNA global structure-based RNA three-dimensional structural classification database.

Project description:The three-dimensional (3D) structure of RNA usually plays an important role in the recognition with RNA-binding protein. Along with the discovering of RNAs, several RNA databases are developed to study the functions of RNA based on sequence, secondary structure, local 3D structural motif and global structure. Based on RNA function and structure, different RNAs are classified and stored in SCOR and DARTS, respectively. The classification of RNA structures is useful in RNA structure prediction and function annotation. However, the SCOR and DARTS are not updated any more. In this study, we present an RNA classification database RR3DD based on RNA fold with the global 3D structural similarity. The RR3DD includes 13,601 RNA chains from PDB and mmCIF format structures which are classified into 780 RNA folds. The RNA chains from PDB and mmCIF format structures are aligned and clustered into 675 and 220 RNA folds, respectively. By analysing the RNA structure in RR3DD, we find that there are 11 clusters with more than 50 members. These clusters include rRNAs, riboswitches, tRNAs and so on. By mapping RR3DD into Rfam, we found that some RNAs without annotation by Rfam can be annotated through structural alignment. For example, we analysed tRNAs and found that tRNA were successfully grouped in RR3DD for which Rfam did not classify them into one family. Finally, we provide a web interface of RR3DD offering functions of browsing RR3DD, annotating RNA 3D structure and finding templates for RNA homology modelling.

Classification of the colonic splenic flexure based on three-dimensional CT analysis.

Project description:Mobilization of the splenic flexure can be a challenging surgical step in colorectal surgery. This study aimed to classify the splenic flexure based on the three-dimensional (3D) coordinates of the splenic hilum and left renal hilum. This classification was used to compare splenic flexure mobilization during colorectal resection. CT images of patients with colorectal cancer treated between April 2018 and December 2019 were analysed retrospectively. 3D mutual positioning of the splenic flexure from the ligament of Treitz to the splenic hilum or the left renal hilum was used to classify patients into three groups using cluster analysis. The difference in the procedure time between groups was also analysed in a subset of patients undergoing laparoscopic colectomy with complete splenic flexure mobilization. Of 515 patients reviewed, 319 with colorectal cancers were included in the study and categorized based on the 3D coordinates of the splenic hilum and left renal hilum as caudal (100 patients), cranial (118) and lateral (101) positions. Male sex (P < 0.001), older age (P = 0.004) and increased bodyweight (P = 0.043) were independent characteristics of the lateral group in multiple logistic regression analysis. Thirty-four patients underwent complete splenic flexure mobilization during the study period; this took significantly longer (mean 78.7 min) in the lateral group than in the caudal and cranial groups (41.8 and 43.2 min respectively; P = 0.006). Locating the splenic flexure using 3D coordinates could be helpful in predicting a longer duration for mobilization of the splenic flexure.

Forming three-dimensional closed shapes from two-dimensional soft ribbons by controlled buckling.

Project description:Conventional manufacturing techniques-moulding, machining and casting-exist to produce three-dimensional (3D) shapes. However, these industrial processes are typically geared for mass production and are not directly applicable to residential settings, where inexpensive and versatile tools are desirable. Moreover, those techniques are, in general, not adequate to process soft elastic materials. Here, we introduce a new concept of forming 3D closed hollow shapes from two-dimensional (2D) elastic ribbons by controlled buckling. We numerically and experimentally characterize how the profile and thickness of the ribbon determine its buckled shape. We find a 2D master profile with which various elliptical 3D shapes can be formed. More complex natural and artificial hollow shapes, such as strawberry, hourglass and wheel, can also be achieved via strategic design and pattern engraving on the ribbons. The nonlinear response of the post-buckling regime is rationalized through finite-element analysis, which shows good quantitative agreement with experiments. This robust fabrication should complement conventional techniques and provide a rich arena for future studies on the mechanics and new applications of elastic hollow structures.

Manufacturing seamless three-dimensional woven preforms with complex shapes based on a new weaving technology.

Project description:A new weaving technology using a modified z-binder interlacement system was designed to demonstrate its potential for the effective, continuous, efficient, and rapid manufacturing of various three-dimensional (3D) woven structures. First, three representative 3D woven preforms were fabricated. Then, epoxy resin was transferred to a preform. The manufactured 3D woven textile-reinforced composites were investigated using micro-CT analysis, tensile tests, and bending tests to study the effect of the z-binder interlacing on the structure. Furthermore, a design rule was established that could seamlessly create complex 3D woven structures with non-uniform heights in the z-direction, such as boxes, bowls, and pyramids, demonstrating that the seamless 3D woven preform of the complex shape can be fabricated with structural integrity.

Three dimensional reconstructions of Nummulites tests reveal complex chamber shapes.

Project description:Larger benthic foraminifera (LBF) are important and prolific carbonate producers both in modern and ancient shallow tropical seas. During the Paleogene the genus Nummulites was particularly abundant with a global distribution, leading it to be frequently used in biostratigraphy. However, their evolution is poorly understood as classification is Europe-centered and mostly based on external characters and equatorial thin sections. New occurrences from regions outside the northern Tethys which poorly fit in thus reference frame, show that a more rigid framework for the classification of Nummulites is needed. Here we apply micro computed-tomographical scanning, a tool that recently has become available, to visualise 3D chamber shape of Nummulites djokdjokartae and compare these to traditional morphometrical characters. We find that despite the regular shape in equatorial and axial thin section the irregular 3D chamber shape is not predicted by these sections. We argue that 3D reconstructions of Nummulites tests will be a great aid in improving our understanding of lineages within the genus Nummulites, and to elucidate its evolutionary and biogeographical history.

Three-Dimensional Wind Measurement Based on Ultrasonic Sensor Array and Multiple Signal Classification.

Project description:The wind power industry continues to experience rapid growth worldwide. However, the fluctuations in wind speed and direction complicate the wind turbine control process and hinder the integration of wind power into the electrical grid. To maximize wind utilization, we propose to precisely measure the wind in a three-dimensional (3D) space, thus facilitating the process of wind turbine control. Natural wind is regarded as a 3D vector, whose direction and magnitude correspond to the wind's direction and speed. A semi-conical ultrasonic sensor array is proposed to simultaneously measure the wind speed and direction in a 3D space. As the ultrasonic signal transmitted between the sensors is influenced by the wind and environment noise, a Multiple Signal Classification algorithm is adopted to estimate the wind information from the received signal. The estimate's accuracy is evaluated in terms of root mean square error and mean absolute error. The robustness of the proposed method is evaluated by the type A evaluation of standard uncertainty under a varying signal-to-noise ratio. Simulation results validate the accuracy and anti-noise performance of the proposed method, whose estimated wind speed and direction errors converge to zero when the SNR is over 15 dB.
