Abstract: | The accurate identification of protein structure class solely using extracted information from protein sequence is a complicated task in the current computational biology. Prediction of protein structural class for low-similarity sequences remains a challenging problem. In this study, the new computational method has been developed to predict protein structural class by fusing the sequence information and evolution information to represent a protein sample. To evaluate the performance of the proposed method, jackknife cross-validation tests are performed on two widely used benchmark data-sets, 1189 and 25PDB with sequence similarity lower than 40 and 25%, respectively. Comparison of our results with other methods shows that the proposed method by us is very promising and may provide a cost-effective alternative to predict protein structural class in particular for low-similarity data-sets. |
