1.3.3 Verification of Stability of Protein Structures

Оглавление

PROCHECK server was used to verify the stereo chemical quality and the geometry of protein models through Ramachandran plots (Figure 1.2). Furthermore, it was revealed that all the protein structures are in most favorable region because they had percentage value more than 80% (Table 1.5). Thus, the standard of these proteins was assessed to be immense and reliable. On top of that, PROCHECK analysis disclose that a number of residues such as TYR265 and GLU51 for EGFR while LYS180 for K-ras oncogene protein were located away from energetically favored regions of Ramachandran plot. Besides that, there are no residues found at forbade region for TP53 protein model.

Thereby, the stereo chemical interpretation of backbone phi/psi dihedral angles deduced that EGFR, K-ras oncogene protein, and TP53 have low percentage of residues among the protein models. Moreover, ProQ was utilized in order to validate “the quality” with the usage of Levitt-Gerstein (LG) score and maximum subarray (MaxSub). All the protein models were within the range for LG and MaxSub score according to the outcome exhibited for creating a good model (Table 1.5).

ERRAT analysis is used for assessing the protein models which were determined by x-ray crystallography. Next, the value of ERRAT relies upon the statistics of non-bonded atomic interactions in the 3D protein structures. The protein is generally accepted as high quality protein if the percentage is greater than 50%. The ERRAT analysis score result shows that K-ras oncogene protein had the highest at 94.767. Therefore, it can be seen that K-ras oncogene protein has high quality resolution among the protein models. Besides that, the score value for EGFR is 88.010 while 90.374 for TP53 (Figure 1.3).

The Verify3D server was used to reveal the residues in each protein in which EGFR, K-ras oncogene, and TP53 had 98.59%, 100.00%, and 92.96% residues, respectively. Next, the average 3D-1D score of all three proteins are more than 0.2. As a consequence, it specifies that all of the sequences were in line with its protein model (Figure 1.4). Certainly, the resulting energy minimized EGFR, K-ras oncogene protein, and TP53 protein models satisfied the standard for evaluation of protein. Hence, the docking analysis with ligand will be carried out.
