Abstract

In this paper, we present a method to visualize the contact region between two molecules in a protein complex in a threedimensional space. The contact region of two molecules shows compatibility in geometric aspects. Usually, the computation of the area of contact region has been used to show the strength of compatibility. The numerical value and simple drawing of contact region would be useful for comparing the relative strength of different contacts, but it is not appropriate for analysing the geometric characteristics of the contact region. In this paper, we present a method to show the compatibility between two molecules by visualizing the distance information between them.

본 논문에서는 두 개의 단백질 분자가 결합하여 복합체를 구성할 때, 두 분자 간의 접촉 영역을 발견하여 3차원 공간에서 가시화하는 방법을 제시한다. 두 분자 간의 접촉 영역은 기하학적인 측면에서 서로 상보성을 보이며, 상보적인 결합의 크기를 나타내기 위한 방법으로 접촉 영역의 면적을 계산하는 방법이 주로 사용되어 왔다. 접촉 영역의 면적을 수치화한 결과와 접촉 영역의 단순 표시는 서로 다른 접촉 영역에 대해 상대적인 결합 강도를 비교하기에는 적합하지만, 접촉 영역이 가진 기하학적인 특성을 분석하기에는 부적합하다. 본 논문에서는 접촉 영역에서 상보성을 표시하기 위해 상대 분자와의 거리 정보를 가시화하는 방법을 제시한다.
