This calculation shows how to calculate the structure of a homodimeric protein from previously unassigned NOESY peak lists. The input data are in the subdirectory ‘dimer’ of the demo data zip archive:
- demo.seq
- amino acid sequence
- c13.peaks
- peak list from 3D 13C-resolved NOESY spectrum
- n15.peaks
- peak list from 3D 15N-resolved NOESY spectrum
- inter.peaks
- peak list with intermolecular peaks from a filtered 3D 13C-resolved NOESY spectrum (Assignments will be restricted to intermolecular ones if the "XEASY color code" in the fifth column of the peak list is set to 9. Similarly, assignments can be restricted to intramolecular ones if the XEASY color code is set to 8.)
- demo.prot
- 1H, 13C, and 15N chemical shift list
- demo.aco
- dihedral angle restraints
- init.cya
- initialization macro
- AUTO.cya
- macro for the structure calculation
The presence of a homodimer is specified by additional commands in the initialization macro file, init.cya:
name:=demo cyanalib read seq demo.seq molecules define 1..49 101..149 # Two monomers of residues 1-49 and 101-149, respectively molecule identity # Apply torsion angle difference restraints to keep the weight_ide=0.03 # structures of two monomers identical molecule symdist "CA 1..49" "CA 101..149" # Apply distance difference restraints for symmetry- weight_sym=0.0025 # related distances for symmetric relative orientation
Combined automated NOESY cross peak assignment and structure calculation are performed with the macro file AUTO.cya:
peaks := c13.peaks,n15.peaks,aro.peaks # NOESY peak lists in XEASY format #peaks := c13.xpk,n15.xpk,aro.xpk # alternative peak lists in NMRView format prot := demo.prot # names of chemical shift lists restraints := demo.aco # additional (non-NOE) restraints tolerance := 0.040,0.030,0.45 # shift tolerances: H, H', C/N', C/N #calibration_constant:=6.7E5,8.2E5,8.0E4 # calibration constants, automatic if empty structures := 100,20 # number of initial, final structures steps := 10000 # number of torsion angle dynamics steps randomseed := 434726 # random number generator seed noeassign peaks=$peaks prot=$prot autoaco # perform NOESY assignment/structure calculation
First several variables are set: The variable peaks gives the names of the input peak lists, separated by commas without intervening blanks. The variable prot gives the name(s) of the input chemical shift list(s). If a single name is given as in the example, it specifies that a single chemical shift list file with this name will be used for all peak lists. Alternatively, it is possible to specify a separate chemical shift list for each peak list as a comma-separated list of file names. The variable restraints specifies the names of input files with additional conformational restraints that will be used together with the upper distance bounds that will be derived from the NOESY peaks. If there are several file names, they must be separated by commas without intervening blanks. The variable tolerance specifies the tolerances for the matching of chemical shifts. It is used for a consistency check of the peaks that have assignments in the input peak lists, and for the automated NOESY cross peak assignment. The calibration constants for the peak lists can be given by the variable calibration as a comma-separated list of values in the order of the peak list names given by the variable peaks. If the variable calibration is not given, the calibration parameters are determined automatically such that the median of the upper distance limits for each peak list equals the value of the variable calibration_dref. The variable calibration_dref can have a single value that applies to all peak lists, or separate values for each peak list. This variable is not used when the calibration constants are given explicitly by the variable calibration_constant.
Seven cycles of combined automated NOESY assignment and structure calculation are performed, followed by a final structure calculation. In each cycle and in the final structure calculation 100 conformers are calculated using the standard simulated annealing schedule with 10000 torsion angle dynamics steps per conformer. The 20 conformers with the lowest final target function values are analyzed. An overview table of these 20 best conformers is saved in the file final.ovw, and their coordinates are written to the PDB file final.pdb. The corresponding files from the intermediate cycles 1-7 are called cycle1.*, cycle2.*, etc.
An overview table of the complete calculation can be obtained with the command cyanatable (at the Unix prompt) during or after the completion of the calculation.
