Abstract
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) has been an important source of structural restraints for solving structures of oligomeric transmembrane domains (TMDs) of cell surface receptors and viral membrane proteins. In NMR studies, oligomers are assembled using inter-protomer distance restraints. But, for oligomers that are higher than dimer, these distance restraints all have two-fold directional ambiguity, and resolving such ambiguity often requires time-consuming trial-and-error calculations using restrained molecular dynamics (MD) with simulated annealing (SA). We report an Exhaustive Search algorithm for Symmetric Oligomer (ExSSO), which can perform near-complete search of the symmetric conformational space in a very short time. In this approach, the predetermined protomer model is subject to full angular and spatial search within the symmetry space. This approach, which can be applied to any rotationally symmetric oligomers, was validated using the structures of the Fas death receptor, the HIV-1 gp41 fusion protein, the influenza proton channel, and the MCU pore. The algorithm is able to generate approximate oligomer solutions quickly as initial inputs for further refinement using the MD/SA method.

Abstract
We introduce AUDANA (Automated Database-Assisted NOE Assignment), an algorithm for determining three-dimensional structures of proteins from NMR data that automates the assignment of 3D-NOE spectra, generates distance constraints, and conducts iterative high temperature molecular dynamics and simulated annealing. The protein sequence, chemical shift assignments, and NOE spectra are the only required inputs. Distance constraints generated automatically from...

Abstract Symmetric homo-oligomers represent a majority of proteins, and determining their structures helps elucidate important biological processes, including ion transport, signal transduction, and transcriptional regulation. In order to account for the noise and sparsity in the distance restraints used in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR)...

The structure determination of symmetric dimers by NMR is impeded by the ambiguity of inter- and intramonomer NOE crosspeaks. In this paper, a calculation strategy is presented that allows the calculation of dimer structures without resolving the ambiguity by additional experiments (like asymmetric...
