Some of the most interesting CASP11 targets through the eyes of their authors.

ABSTRACT: The Critical Assessment of protein Structure Prediction (CASP) experiment would not have been possible without the prediction targets provided by the experimental structural biology community. In this article, selected crystallographers providing targets for the CASP11 experiment discuss the functional and biological significance of the target proteins, highlight their most interesting structural features, and assess whether these features were correctly reproduced in the predictions submitted to CASP11.

Evaluation of free modeling targets in CASP11 and ROLL.

Project description:We present an assessment of 'template-free modeling' (FM) in CASP11and ROLL. Community-wide server performance suggested the use of automated scores similar to previous CASPs would provide a good system of evaluating performance, even in the absence of comprehensive manual assessment. The CASP11 FM category included several outstanding examples, including successful prediction by the Baker group of a 256-residue target (T0806-D1) that lacked sequence similarity to any existing template. The top server model prediction by Zhang's Quark, which was apparently selected and refined by several manual groups, encompassed the entire fold of target T0837-D1. Methods from the same two groups tended to dominate overall CASP11 FM and ROLL rankings. Comparison of top FM predictions with those from the previous CASP experiment revealed progress in the category, particularly reflected in high prediction accuracy for larger protein domains. FM prediction models for two cases were sufficient to provide functional insights that were otherwise not obtainable by traditional sequence analysis methods. Importantly, CASP11 abstracts revealed that alignment-based contact prediction methods brought about much of the CASP11 progress, producing both of the functionally relevant models as well as several of the other outstanding structure predictions. These methodological advances enabled de novo modeling of much larger domain structures than was previously possible and allowed prediction of functional sites.

CASP11 refinement experiments with ROSETTA.

Project description:We report new Rosetta-based approaches to tackling the major issues that confound protein structure refinement, and the testing of these approaches in the CASP11 experiment. Automated refinement protocols were developed that integrate a range of sampling methods using parallel computation and multiobjective optimization. In CASP11, we used a more aggressive large-scale structure rebuilding approach for poor starting models, and a less aggressive local rebuilding plus core refinement approach for starting models likely to be closer to the native structure. The more incorrectly modeled a structure was predicted to be, the more it was allowed to vary during refinement. The CASP11 experiment revealed strengths and weaknesses of the approaches: the high-resolution strategy incorporating local rebuilding with core refinement consistently improved starting structures, while the low-resolution strategy incorporating the reconstruction of large parts of the structures improved starting models in some cases but often considerably worsened them, largely because of model selection issues. Overall, the results suggest the high-resolution refinement protocol is a promising method orthogonal to other approaches, while the low-resolution refinement method clearly requires further development.

"The very interesting finding suggests that…": A cognitive frame-based analysis of interest markers by authors' geo-academic location in applied linguistics research articles.

Project description:Linguistic expressions of interest instantiated by interesting, intriguing, and fascinating that signal the authorial stance are not uncommon in applied linguistics research articles. Nevertheless, they have received little scholarly attention. This paper, taking a cognitive semantic approach, reports on a study that sought to examine how linguistically expressed interest in applied linguistics research articles is leveraged by researchers' geo-academic location (the Core vs. the Periphery). Drawing on a semantic frame generated for interest markers in academic writing, this study focused on the incidence of the various elements of the Interest frame in the discipline of applied linguistics based on a mixed-methods approach. The corpus-based quantitative analyses found that academic writers' geo-academic location was a robust predictor of authors' overall use of interest markers and some frame elements associated with the Interest frame. Triangulation with the interview data obtained from disciplinary specialists revealed that the observed differences could be attributable to the hierarchical academia featuring periphery-based scholars' unequal access to the knowledge production market and under-representation.

Pitfalls and Nuances of Parahisian pacing: A revisit through an interesting case.

Project description:Parahisian pacing (PHP) is a useful maneuver during electrophysiology study of supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) especially when the tachycardia is non-sustained. Various responses during PHP can differentiate between the routes of VA conduction (VAC). In a case of WPW syndrome with orthodromic re-entrant tachycardia, we encountered various responses which one must be cognizant about to avoid erroneous conclusions. Along with para-hisian capture and only ventricular capture, simultaneous atrial capture (SAC) and pure His capture were also noted. Moreover, during pure-His capture underlying distal antegrade right bundle branch block (RBBB) was encountered making it an intriguing case.

Follicular Helper T Cells in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: Why Should They Be Considered as Interesting Therapeutic Targets?

Project description:Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by B cell hyperactivity leading to the production of autoantibodies, some of which having a deleterious effect. Reducing autoantibody production thus represents a way of controlling lupus pathogenesis, and a better understanding of the molecular and cellular factors involved in the differentiation of B cells into plasma cells could allow identifying new therapeutic targets. Follicular helper T cells (TFH) represent a distinct subset of CD4(+) T cells specialized in providing help to B cells. They are required for the formation of germinal centers and the generation of long-lived serological memory and, as such, are suspected to play a central role in SLE. Recent advances in the field of TFH biology have allowed the identification of important molecular factors involved in TFH differentiation, regulation, and function. Interestingly, some of these TFH-related molecules have been described to be dysregulated in lupus patients. In the present review, we give an overview of the aberrant expression and/or function of such key players in lupus, and we highlight their potential as therapeutic targets.

The Hospital Experience Through the Patients' Eyes.

Project description:BackgroundPosthospital syndrome is associated with a decrease in physical and cognitive function and can contribute to overall patient decline. We can speculate on contributors to this decline (eg, poor sleep and nutrition), but other factors may also contribute. This study seeks to explain how patients experience hospitalization with particular attention on what makes the hospital stay difficult.DesignQualitative interview study using grounded theory methodology.SettingSingle-site academic medical center.PatientsHospitalized general medicine patients.MeasurementsInterviews using a semistructured interview guide.ResultsWe recruited 20 general medicine inpatients from an academic medical center. Of the participants, 12 were women and the mean age was 55 years (range = 22-82 years). We found 4 major themes contributing to the hospital experience: (1) hospital environment (eg, food quality and entertainment), (2) patient factors (eg, indifference and expectations), (3) hospital personnel (eg, care team size and level of helpfulness), and (4) patient feelings (eg, level of control and feeling like an object). We discovered that these emotions arising from hospital experiences, together with the other 3 major themes, led to the patients' perception of their hospital experience overall. We also explore the role that patient tolerance may play in the reporting of patient satisfaction.ConclusionsThis article demonstrates the factors affecting how patients experience hospitalization. It provides insight into possible contributors to posthospital syndrome and offers a blueprint for specific quality improvement initiatives. Lastly, it briefly explores how patient tolerance may prove a challenge to the current system of quality reporting.

Biological function derived from predicted structures in CASP11.

Project description:In CASP11, the organizers sought to bring the biological inferences from predicted structures to the fore. To accomplish this, we assessed the models for their ability to perform quantifiable tasks related to biological function. First, for 10 targets that were probable homodimers, we measured the accuracy of docking the models into homodimers as a function of GDT-TS of the monomers, which produced characteristic L-shaped plots. At low GDT-TS, none of the models could be docked correctly as homodimers. Above GDT-TS of ∼60%, some models formed correct homodimers in one of the largest docked clusters, while many other models at the same values of GDT-TS did not. Docking was more successful when many of the templates shared the same homodimer. Second, we docked a ligand from an experimental structure into each of the models of one of the targets. Docking to the models with two different programs produced poor ligand RMSDs with the experimental structure. Measures that evaluated similarity of contacts were reasonable for some of the models, although there was not a significant correlation with model accuracy. Finally, we assessed whether models would be useful in predicting the phenotypes of missense mutations in three human targets by comparing features calculated from the models with those calculated from the experimental structures. The models were successful in reproducing accessible surface areas but there was little correlation of model accuracy with calculation of FoldX evaluation of the change in free energy between the wild-type and the mutant.
