T
o understand the folding mechanism of a protein is one of the goals in
bioinformatics study. Nowadays, it is enigmatic and difficult to extract
the folding information from its amino acid sequence by using standard
bioinformatics techniques or even experimental protocol which cost and
time consuming. To overcome these problems, we aim to extract the initial
folding unit for titin protein (Ig and fnIII domains) in the mean of inter-residue
average distance statistics, average distance map (ADM) and contact
frequency analysis (F-value). TI I27 and TNfn3 domains are represented for
Ig-domain and fnIII-domain, respectively. Beta-strand two, three, five and six
are significant for the initial folding processes of TI I27. On the other hands,
the central strands of TNfn3 were predicted as a primary folding segment.
Furthermore, known 3D structure and unknown 3D structure domains were
investigated by structure or non-structure basedmultiple sequence alignment,
respectively, to seek the conservation hydrophobic residue and predicted
compact region through the evolution. Our results show well corresponded to
experimental data, phi-value and protection factor of H-D exchange manner.
It is confirming the significance of conserved hydrophobic residues near
F-value peaks for structural stability by using hydrophobic packing. Again, our
prediction methods could extract the folding mechanism by only its amino
acid sequence.
