Design of Repeat Alpha-Beta Proteins with Capping Helices
Baker, D.; Zorine, D.
Show abstract
Proteins composed of a single structural unit tandemly repeated multiple times carry out a wide range of functions in biology. There has hence been considerable interest in designing such repeat proteins; previous approaches have employed strict constraints on secondary structure types and relative geometries, and most characterized designs either mimic a known natural topology, adhere closely to a parametric helical bundle architecture, or exploit very short repetitive sequences. Here, we describe Rosetta-based and deep learning hallucination methods for generating novel repeat protein architectures featuring mixed alpha-helix and beta-strand topologies, and 25 new highly stable alpha-beta proteins designed using these methods. We find that incorporation of terminal caps which prevent beta strand mediated intermolecular interactions increases the solubility and monomericity of individual designs as well as overall design success rate.

"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.
