| Abstract | Functionally annotating protein structures of unknown function is one of the important challenges in Bioinformatics. An informatics approach to predict the function of a protein is by analyzing the functions of other structurally similar proteins. Ability to search and retrieve similar protein structures among large dataset is crucial in this approach. Here, we propose a novel approach for efficient protein structure search where protein structures are represented as vectors by 3D-Zernike Descriptor (3DZD). Surface shape of protein tertiary structure is compactly represented with 3DZD encoding. This simplified representation accelerates the structural search from daylong to matter of seconds. However, further speed up is required to address the scenarios where multiple users access the database at the same time. We address this need for further speed up in protein structural search by exploiting the fast k nearest neighbor algorithms on the 3DZDs. The results show that the proposed methods significantly improve the searching speed. In addition, we introduce an extended approach for protein structure search based on the methods that utilize the 3DZD characteristic. Experiments show that the searching time reduced 75.41% by the fast k-nearest neighbor algorithm, 88.7% by the extended fast k-nearest neighbor algorithm, 88.84% by the fast threshold-based nearest neighbor algorithm, and 91.53% by the fast extended threshold-based nearest neighbor algorithm. In a simulationed test case, the extended threshold-based algorithm which had the highest speed improvement in the initial test case, showed speed improvement up to 87.48% compared to linear scan. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
