Detection of domain boundaries in proteins by plotting energy of
Non-Bonded Interactions
as function of in silico chain truncation
in native structural format

ABSTRACT
Guptasarma P., Detecting domain boundaries in proteins by
plotting of the Energy of Non-Bonded Interactions (ENBI) as a function of in silico chain truncation in native
structural format, Onl J Bioinform,
19
(1):1-12, 2018. Plotting
of variations in the energy of non-bonded interactions as a function of varying
chain length (in native structural format) facilitates the identification of
protein structural domains. Plots display ‘troughs’ and ‘swells’. Locations
within individual troughs that mark the largest sustained departure in slope
correspond to domain boundaries.
Keywords: Protein domains; Protein folding;
Non-bonded interactions.
