Proteins fold from chains of amino acids, forming secondary structures, -helices and {beta}-strands, that, at least for globular proteins, subsequently fold into a three-dimensional structure. A large-scale analysis of high-resolution protein structures suggests that amino acid pairs constitute another layer of ordered structure, more local than these conventionally defined secondary structures. We develop a cross-peptide-bond Ramachandran plot that captures the conformational preferences of the amino acid pairs and show that the effect of a particular mutation on the stability of a protein depends in a predictable manner on the adjacent amino acid context. One-Sentence SummaryLarge-scale protein backbone analysis reveals amino acid pair conformational preferences and predicts how sequence context affects mutant stability.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
