| Abstract | To investigate the relationship between an amino acid sequence and its corresponding protein fold, a database of thermodynamic stability information was assembled as a function of residue type from 81 nonhomologous proteins. This information was obtained using the COREX algorithm, which computes an ensemble-based description of the native state of proteins. Dissection of the COREX stability constant into its fundamental energetic components resulted in 12 thermodynamic environments describing the tertiary architecture of protein folds. Because of the observation that residue types partitioned unequally between these environments, it was hypothesized that thermodynamic environments contained energetic information that connected sequence to fold. To test the significance of this hypothesis, the thermodynamic stability information was incorporated into a three-dimensional-to-one-dimensional scoring matrix, and simple fold recognition experiments were performed in a manner such that information about the fold target was never included in the scoring. For 60 out of 81 fold targets, the correct sequence for the target scored in the top 5% of 3858 decoy sequences, with Z-scores ranging from 1.76 to 12.23. Furthermore, a scoring matrix assembled from the residues of 40 nonhomologous all-alpha proteins was used to thread sequences against 12 nonhomologous all-beta protein targets. In 10 of 12 cases, sequences known to adopt the native all-beta structure scored in the top 5% of 3858 decoy sequences, with Z-scores ranging from 1.99 to 7.94. These results indicate that energetic information encoded by thermodynamic environments represents a fundamental property of proteins that underlies classifications based on secondary structure. |

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.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
