Abstract:

Dynamics perturbation analysis (DPA) finds regions in a protein structure where proteins are “ticklish”, i.e., where interactions cause a large change in protein dynamics. Previously, such regions were shown to predict the location of native binding sites in a docking test set, but the more general applicability of DPA to the prediction of functional sites in proteins was not shown. Here we describe the results of applying an accelerated algorithm, called Fast DPA, to predict functional sites in over 50,000 SCOP domains.
