Chou-Fasman Algorithm for Protein Prediction 3
What is chou-fasman algorithm? • The experimental methods used by biotechnologists
to determine the structures of proteins demand sophisticated equipment and time. • A host of computational methods are developed to
predict the location of secondary structure elements in proteins for complementing or creating insights into experimental results. • Chou-Fasman algorithm is an empirical algorithm
developed for the prediction of protein secondary structure

Chou-Fasman Algorithm for Protein Prediction 6
Secondary structure prediction• In either case, amino acid propensities should be
useful for predicting secondary structure• Two classical methods that use previously
determined propensities:• Chou-Fasman• Garnier-Osguthorpe-Robson

Chou-Fasman Algorithm for Protein Prediction 7
Goal…
• Take primary structure (sequence) and, using rules derived from known structures, predict the secondary structure that is most likely to be adopted by each residue• Major classes are a-helices, b-sheets and loops
![Page 8: Chou fasman algorithm for protein structure prediction](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061419/558e56c61a28ab546e8b45b6/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Chou-Fasman Algorithm for Protein Prediction 8
Structural Propensities
• Due to the size, shape and charge of its side chain, each amino acid may “fit” better in one type of secondary structure than another• Classic example: The rigidity and side chain angle of
proline cannot be accomodated in an -helical structure
![Page 9: Chou fasman algorithm for protein structure prediction](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061419/558e56c61a28ab546e8b45b6/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Chou-Fasman Algorithm for Protein Prediction 9
Structural Propensities
• Two ways to view the significance of this preference (or propensity)• It may control or affect the folding of the protein in its
immediate vicinity (amino acid determines structure)• It may constitute selective pressure to use particular
amino acids in regions that must have a particular structure (structure determines amino acid)

Chou-Fasman method
• Uses table of conformational parameters (propensities) determined primarily from measurements of secondary structure by CD spectroscopy• Table consists of one “likelihood” for each structure
for each amino acid

Chou-Fasman method
• A prediction is made for each type of structure for each amino acid• Can result in ambiguity if a region has high propensities
for both helix and sheet (higher value usually chosen, with exceptions)

Chou-Fasman Algorithm for Protein Prediction 14
Chou-Fasman method
• Calculation rules are somewhat ad hoc• Example: Method for helix• Search for nucleating region where 4 out of 6 a.a. have
P > 1.03• Extend until 4 consecutive a.a. have an average P < 1.00• If region is at least 6 a.a. long, has an average P > 1.03,
and average P > average P consider region to be helix

Chou-Fasman Algorithm for Protein Prediction 15
• Scan the peptide and identify regions where 3 out of 5 contiguous residues have P(β)>100.• These residues nucleate β- strands. Extend these in
both directions until a set of four contiguous residues have an average P(β)<100.• This ends β- strand.

Chou-Fasman Algorithm for Protein Prediction 16
• region containing overlapping α and β Any assignment are taken to be helical or β depending on if the average P(α) and P(β) for that region is largest. • If this residues an α or β- region so that it
becomes less than 5 residues, the α or β assignment for that region is removed.

Accuracy of Chou-Fasman predictions
• Sequences whose 3D structures are known are processed so that each residue is “assigned” to a given secondary structure class by looking at the backbone angles• Three classes most often used (helix=H, sheet=E, turn=C)
but sometimes use four classes (helix, sheet, turn, loop)
