Achieving stability and conformational specificity in designed proteins via binary patterning.

Abstract excerpt

We have developed a method to determine the optimal binary pattern (arrangement of hydrophobic and polar amino acids) of a target protein fold prior to amino acid sequence selection in protein design studies. A solvent accessible surface is generated for a target fold using its backbone coordinates and "generic" side-chains, which are constructs whose size and shape are similar to an average amino acid. Each...
