CR-I-TASSER: assemble protein structures from cryo-EM density maps using deep convolutional neural networks.

ABSTRACT: Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) has become a leading approach for protein structure determination, but it remains challenging to accurately model atomic structures with cryo-EM density maps. We propose a hybrid method, CR-I-TASSER (cryo-EM iterative threading assembly refinement), which integrates deep neural-network learning with I-TASSER assembly simulations for automated cryo-EM structure determination. The method is benchmarked on 778 proteins with simulated and experimental density maps, where CR-I-TASSER constructs models with a correct fold (template modeling (TM) score >0.5) for 643 targets that is 64% higher than the best of some other de novo and refinement-based approaches on high-resolution data samples. Detailed data analyses showed that the main advantage of CR-I-TASSER li
