Protein Structure Validation Using PDBMine and Data Analytics Approaches
摘要
Protein structure prediction is essential for understanding biological functions and advancing drug development. Although experimental techniques like NMR, X-ray crystallography, and cryo-EM provide valuable insights, they are expensive and time-consuming, prompting reliance on computational approaches. AlphaFold2 revolutionized protein model predictions accuracy in 2020. However, it faces limitations in accurately predicting certain novel proteins, complex conformations, and mutations. To address these challenges, we leverage PDBMine and machine learning for advanced data analytics. This approach detects and corrects structural inaccuracies, and enhances model reliability, accelerating therapeutic breakthroughs by bridging gaps in current protein prediction capabilities.
