Assessment of refinement of template-based models in CASP11.

ABSTRACT: CASP11 (the 11th Meeting on the Critical Assessment of Protein Structure Prediction) ran a blind experiment in the refinement of protein structure predictions, the fourth such experiment since CASP8. As with the previous experiments, the predictors were provided with one starting structure from the server models of each of a selected set of template-based modeling targets and asked to refine the coordinates of the starting structure toward native. We assessed the refined structures with the Z-scores of the standard CASP measures, which compare the model-target similarities of the models from all the predictors. Furthermore, we assessed the refined structures with "relative measures," which compare the improvement in accuracy of each model with respect to the starting structure. The latter
