Producing High-Accuracy Lattice Models from Protein Atomic Coordinates Including Side Chains

Figure 1

The diagram depicts the fitting process of LatFit for side chain models. (a) Original full atom data is given. The five atoms of the segment are highlighted as balls while the backbone and side chain parts are given in light and dark green, respectively. (b) The coordinates for each amino acid to fit are extracted, that is, for side chain models the position (light blue) and the centroid of the side chain (dark blue). (c) These positions are fitted to derive an according lattice protein model in the underlying lattice (here 3D knight’s walk lattice).
