Exploratory Studies Detecting Secondary Structures in Medium Resolution 3D Cryo-EM Images Using Deep Convolutional Neural Networks.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) is an emerging biophysical technique for structural determination of protein complexes. However, accurate detection of secondary structures is still challenging when cryo-EM density maps are at medium resolutions (5-10 Å). Most of existing methods are image processing methods that do not fully utilize available images in the cryo-EM database. In this paper, we present a deep learning approach to segment secondary structure elements as helices and β-sheets from medium-resolution density maps. The proposed 3D convolutional neural network is shown to detect secondary structure locations with an F1 score between 0.79 and 0.88 for six simulated test cases. The architecture was also applied to an experimentally-derived cryo-EM density map with good accuracy.
