Modeling oblong proteins and water-mediated interfaces with RosettaDock in CAPRI rounds 28-35.

ABSTRACT: The 28th-35th rounds of the Critical Assessment of PRotein Interactions (CAPRI) served as a practical benchmark for our RosettaDock protein-protein docking protocols, highlighting strengths and weaknesses of the approach. We achieved acceptable or better quality models in three out of 11 targets. For the two α-repeat protein-green fluorescent protein (αrep-GFP) complexes, we used a novel ellipsoidal partial-global docking method (Ellipsoidal Dock) to generate models with 2.2 Å/1.5 Å interface RMSD, capturing 49%/42% of the native contacts, for the 7-/5-repeat αrep complexes. For the DNase-immunity protein complex, we used a new predictor of hydrogen-bonding networks, HBNet with Bridging Waters, to place individual water models at the complex interface; models were generated with 1.8 Å inte
