OPUS-DOSP: A Distance- and Orientation-Dependent All-Atom Potential Derived from Side-Chain Packing.

ABSTRACT: We report a new distance- and orientation-dependent, all-atom statistical potential derived from side-chain packing, named OPUS-DOSP, for protein structure modeling. The framework of OPUS-DOSP is based on OPUS-PSP, previously developed by us [JMB (2008), 376, 288-301], with refinement and new features. In particular, distance or orientation contribution is considered depending on the range of contact distance. A new auxiliary function in energy function is also introduced, in addition to the traditional Boltzmann term, in order to adjust the contributions of extreme cases. OPUS-DOSP was tested on 11 decoy sets commonly used for statistical potential benchmarking. Among 278 native structures, 239 and 249 native structures were recognized by OPUS-DOSP without and with the auxiliary function,
