We present a new database of computational hot spots in protein interfaces: HotSprint. Hot spots are residues comprising only a small fraction of interfaces yet accounting for the majority of the binding energy. HotSprint contains data for 35 776 protein interfaces among 49 512 protein interfaces extracted from the multi-chain structures in Protein Data Bank (PDB) as of February 2006. The conserved residues in interfaces with certain buried accessible solvent area (ASA) and complex ASA thresholds are flagged as computational hot spots. The predicted hot spots are observed to correlate with the experimental hot spots with an accuracy of 76. Several machine-learning methods (SVM, Decision Trees and Decision Lists) are also applied to predict hot spots, results reveal that our empirical approach performs better than the others. A web interface for the HotSprint database allows users to browse and query the hot spots in protein interfaces. HotSprint is available at http://prism.ccbb.ku.edu.tr/hotsprint; and it provides information for interface residues that are functionally and structurally important as well as the evolutionary history and solvent accessibility of residues in interfaces.

PRISM A Web Server for Prediction and Visualization of Protein Protein Interactions Tunçbağ, Nurcan; Ulubaş, Mehmet Cengız; Keskin Özkaya, Zehra Özlem; Gürsoy, Attila (null; 2007-07-25) PRISM is a web server for the querying, visualization and analysis of the protein interfaces and putative protein-protein interactions derived from known protein structures in PDB. Putative interactions between proteins are predicted with an efficient algorithm using structural and evolutionary similarities. The algorithm seeks possible binary interactions between proteins (targets) through similar known interfaces (templates). Template dataset is the structurally and evolutionarily representative subset of...
Analysis and network representation of hotspots in protein interfaces using minimum cut trees Tunçbağ, Nurcan; Keskin, Ozlem; GÜRSOY, Attila (2010-08-01) We propose a novel approach to analyze and visualize residue contact networks of protein interfaces by graph-based algorithms using a minimum cut tree (mincut tree). Edges in the network are weighted according to an energy function derived from knowledge-based potentials. The mincut tree, which is constructed from the weighted residue network, simplifies and summarizes the complex structure of the contact network by an efficient and informative representation. This representation offers a comprehensible vie...
Flexible querying in an intelligent object-oriented database environment Koyuncu, M; Yazıcı, Adnan; George, R (2000-10-28) Many new-generation database applications demand intelligent information management necessitating efficient interactions between database gr. knowledge bases and the users. In this study we discuss evaluation of imprecise queries in an intelligent object-oriented database environment, IFOOD. A flexible query evaluation mechanism, capable of handling different data types including complex and imprecise data and knowledge is presented and key language issues are addressed.
Data sharing and access with a corba data distribution service implementation Dursun, Mustafa; Bilgen, Semih; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2006) Data Distribution Service (DDS) specification defines an API for Data-Centric Publish-Subscribe (DCPS) model to achieve efficient data distribution in distributed computing environments. Lack of definition of interoperability architecture in DDS specification obstructs data distribution between different and heterogeneous DDS implementations. In this thesis, DDS is implemented as a CORBA service to achieve interoperability and a QoS policy is proposed for faster data distribution with CORBA features.
Distributed adaptive output feedback control design and application to a formation flight experiment Kutay, Ali Türker; Calise, Anthony J.; D'Andrea, Raffaello (2005-01-01) An approach for augmenting existing distributed controller designs for large-scale interconnected systems with neural network based adaptive elements is proposed. It is assumed that the controllers are interconnected in the same way as the plant and based on the available measurements, a single hidden layer neural network is introduced for each subsystem to partially cancel the effects of the sub-system interconnections and modeling errors on tracking performance. Boundedness of error signals is shown throu...
