Registration And Grouping Algorithms In Protein Nmr Derived Peak Lists And Their Application In Protein Nmr Reference Correction, Andrey Smelter, Xi Chen, Eric C. Rouchka, Hunter N. B. Moseley

Commonwealth Computational Summit

Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy of proteins (protein NMR) is a powerful analytical technique for studying structure and dynamics of proteins. Almost all aspects of protein NMR have been accelerated by the development of software tools that enable the analysis of NMR spectral data and its utilization in studying protein structure and dynamics. This includes software for raw NMR processing, spectral visualization, protein resonance assignment, and structure determination. However, full automation of protein NMR data analysis is still a work in progress and data analysis still requires an expert NMR spectroscopist utilizing an array of software tools.

Detecting And Accounting For Multiple Sources Of Positional Variance In Peak List Registration Analysis And Spin System Grouping, Andrey Smelter, Eric C. Rouchka, Hunter N. B. Moseley

Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry Faculty Publications

Peak lists derived from nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra are commonly used as input data for a variety of computer assisted and automated analyses. These include automated protein resonance assignment and protein structure calculation software tools. Prior to these analyses, peak lists must be aligned to each other and sets of related peaks must be grouped based on common chemical shift dimensions. Even when programs can perform peak grouping, they require the user to provide uniform match tolerances or use default values. However, peak grouping is further complicated by multiple sources of variance in peak position limiting the effectiveness of …
