Note:
Secondary structure prediction category is dropped from CASP6.
Two new categories - domain boundary prediction and function prediction
- are introduced.
General rules
- Predictions for CASP6 may be submitted in 6 separate formats:
TS # 3D atomic coordinates (Tertiary Structure) prediction
AL # Format to express unambiguous ALignments to PDB entries
RR # Residue-Residue separation distance prediction
DR # Order-Disorder Regions prediction
DP # Domain boundary prediction
FN # Function prediction
- One team may make a prediction of a target by submitting
up to five models in TS/AL, RR, DR, DP and FN formats (models in AL
format are considered equivalent to those in TS
format and will be translated to TS internally before evaluation).
Most of the evaluation and assessment will focus on the model labeled '1'
(model index 1, see MODEL record).
- Each submission may contain only one of the six format categories.
- Submission of each model begins with PFRMAT and ends with END record.
- Each submission may contain only one model, beginning with the MODEL record,
ending with END, and no target residue repetitions.
- Submission of a duplicate model (same target, format category, group, model
index) will replace previously accepted model, provided it is
received before the target has expired.
Note:
models in AL format are considered equivalent to those in TS format.
- Each submitted model is automatically verified by the format verification
server.
Only accepted models will be assigned an ACCESSION CODE.
A unique ACCESSION CODE is composed from the number of the target, prediction
format category, prediction group number, and model index.
Examples:
Accession code T0044TS005_2 has the following components:
T0044 target number
TS Tertiary Structure (PFRMAT TS)
005 prediction group 5
2 model index 2 (by default considered as FINAL/REFINED)
Accession code T0044TS005_2u has the following components:
T0044 target number
TS Tertiary Structure (PFRMAT TS)
005 prediction group 5
2u model index 2 UNREFINED set of coordinates
Format description
All submissions contain records described below.
Each of these records must begin with a standard keyword.
In all submissions standard keywords must
begin in the first column of a record.
The keyword set is as follows:
PFRMAT Format specification code: TS , AL , RR , DR, DP, FN
TARGET Target identifier from the CASP6 target table
AUTHOR XXXX-XXXX-XXXX Registration code of the Group Leader
SCORE Reliability of the model (optional)
REMARK Comment record (may appear anywhere after the first 3 required lines, optional)

MODEL Beginning of the data section for the submitted model
PARENT Specifies structure template used to generate the TS/AL model
TER Terminates independent segments of structure in the TS/AL model
END End of the submitted model
Models should be submitted in Plain Text format.
One model per submission is a rule for 'human groups' and recommendation
for servers. Servers can also reply to our request by a single email with
all models included one after the other. Only 5 first models will be considered.
PLEASE DON'T USE 'tab' AS A SEPARATOR. PLEASE USE 'space' INSTEAD.
Record PFRMAT should appear on the first line of the prediction and
is used for all submissions.
PFRMAT TS
TS indicates that submission contains 3D atomic coordinates
in standard PDB format
PFRMAT RR
RR indicates that submission contains residue-residue
separation distance prediction
PFRMAT AL
AL indicates that submission contains unambiguous alignments
to PDB entries
PFRMAT DR
DR indicates that submission contains order-disorder regions
prediction
PFRMAT DP
DP indicates that submission contains domain prediction
PFRMAT FN
FN indicates that submission contains function prediction
Record TARGET should appear on the second line of the prediction and
is used for all submissions.
TARGET Txxxx
Txxxx indicates id of the target predicted.
Record AUTHOR should appear on the third line of the prediction
and is used for all submissions.
AUTHOR XXXX-XXXX-XXXX
XXXX-XXXX-XXXX indicates the Group Leader's registration code.
This code is the prediction submission code obtained upon
CASP6 group registration.
Members of prediction groups who intend to submit predictions
should use the registration code of the Group Leader for all
predictions submitted by that group.
Server groups can provide their authentification in the form
AUTHOR MY_GROUP_NAME
where MY_GROUP_NAME is a name selected for the group at registration.
There is also an alternative way for server groups to identify themselves
using field REMARK:
REMARK AUTHOR MY_GROUP_NAME
SCORE Optional. This record may be used to report a model
reliability score. It will not influence the evaluation.
REMARK Optional. PDB style 'REMARK' records may be used
anywhere in the submission. These records may contain any
text and will in general not influence evaluation.
Records METHOD are used for all submissions.
These records describe the methods used. Predictors are urged to provide
as full a description of the methods as possible, including references,
data libraries used, and values of default and non-default parameters.
These descriptions will be made available via the Prediction Center WEB
pages as well as printed along with the other materials distributed at the
meeting. Length of 100 - 500 words is suggested.
Record MODEL is used for all submissions.
Signifies the beginning of model data (3D atomic coordinates, an unambiguous
alignment to a PDB entry, residue-residue separation distance prediction and
order-disorder region predictions).
MODEL n [REFINED|UNREFINED]
n Model index n is used to indicate predictor's ranking
according to her/his belief which model is closest to the
target structure (1 <= n <= 5). Model index is included
automatically in the ACCESSION CODE. All models with index
higher than 5 will be discarded.
REFINED The set of coordinates labeled REFINED will be considered
as a final model (to allow the evaluation of the results
of an automated refinement process, such as molecular
dynamics). Models submitted without any label: REFINED or
UNREFINED will be considered by default as final.
UNREFINED Coordinates labeled UNREFINED will be compared only to
the final set (REFINED) with the same model index n, to
evaluate the effectiveness of the refinement method. If
UNREFINED model is submitted, a REFINED model must be
submitted as well. The letter "u" will be added to the
model index in the ACCESSION CODE of the UNREFINED model.
Record PARENT is used for all submissions in the TS (and AL)
format.
PARENT record indicates structure templates used to generate any independent
segment of MODEL (see description of the TS format below).
The PARENT record should be placed as the first record of any such independent
segment. Only one PARENT record per structure segment is allowed.
PARENT N/A
Indicates an ab initio prediction, not directly based on any known
structure. Note that this is the only indication in the file that the
prediction is ab initio, so is a critical piece of information.
PARENT NONE [n1 n2]
Indicates that the predictor believes that there is no structure in
the present PDB that is close enough to be used as a template. This
is an entry requested by those predictors who use threading and
sequence comparison methods. With structural genomics projects being
designed to determine the structure of proteins with novel folds, the
ability to predict when a fold is unknown is becoming increasingly
important, and predictors are urged to make such submissions.
Delimiters n1 n2 indicate the range of the target sequence predicted
as having no homologue in the current PDB.
Omission of n1 n2 indicates the entire target (see Example 1 (C)).
PARENT mabc_A
Indicates that the model or the independent segment of structure is
based on a single PDB entry mabc chain A (use _A to indicate chain A).
Most threading and sequence search submissions would now be submitted
with this form of the PARENT record. A comparative modeler using a
single parent structure would also use this form. Note that, in order
to be accepted, the code must correspond to a current PDB entry.
PARENT mcdc ndef_g [ohij_k ...]
Is used only in comparative modeling and indicates that the model is
based on more than one structure template. Up to five PDB chains
may be listed here with additional detailed information included in
the METHOD records. In threading and sequence search, subdomains of
the target structure found to correspond to different known folds
should be submitted as independent segments of structure with
reference to only one PDB chain per segment.
Record TER is used to terminate an independent segment of structure
(PFRMAT TS and PFRMAT AL).
TER
3D atomic coordinates (PFRMAT TS).
Standard PDB atom records are used for the atomic coordinates. Format of the
submission requires that 80 column long records are used. These may be spaces
when needed (see target template PDB files as provided in specific target
descriptions available through the
CASP6 target table). This requirement is
necessitated by some of the software used in the evaluation of predictions.
Coordinates for each model or an independent structure segment should begin
with a single PARENT record and terminate with a TER record (see above).
It is requested that coordinate data be supplied for at least all
non-hydrogen main chain atoms, i.e. the N, CA, C and O atoms of every residue.
Specifically, if only CA atoms are predicted by the method, predictors are
encouraged to build the main chain atoms for every residue before submission
to CASP. One program that can make such a conversion is
Maxsprout server of Liisa Holm and co-workers. (If only CA atoms were submitted it would not be
possible to run most of the analysis software, which would severely limit the
evaluation of that prediction.)
When multiple independent segments of structure are used in a prediction,
they will be evaluated separately with no assumption of a common
frame of reference between the segments. For any given MODEL, no target
residue may be repeated among all such independent structure
segments. Potential multi-domain
nature of targets will be addressed in the evaluation even if the prediction
is made in a single frame of reference (i.e. without separation into multiple
segments of structure). For such predictions segmentation should only be
used to allow multiple model predictions (effectively up to 5 predictions
for each such domain).
Notes:
- atoms for which a prediction has been made must contain "1.0" in
the occupancy field; those for which no prediction is made must
either contain "0.0" in that field or be skipped altogether
- error estimates, in Angstroms, when given should be provided in the
temperature factor field
An unambiguous alignment to a PDB entry used for threading predictions
(PFRMAT AL).
Alignment for each model or an independent structure segment should begin
with a single PARENT record and terminate with a TER record (see above).
The (four column) alignment data records provide: target residue one
letter symbol, target residue sequence number, PDB residue one letter symbol,
and PDB residue sequence number with an insertion code if necessary
(see Example 3):
aa1 n1 aa2 n2
Note:
- residues for which no prediction is made must be skipped
- if a chain ID is specified in the PDB template of the target, then
the target residue sequence number should be composed of a chain ID
and residue number, e.g. A2, B44
The PDB code with chain extension of the structure the alignment is based on
should be placed in the PARENT record.
Only one PDB code per independent structure segment is allowed.
PDB codes should refer to structures containing at least the main chain atomic
coordinates (see the TS format).
As in the case of coordinate submissions,
when multiple independent segments of structure are used in a prediction,
they will be evaluated separately with no assumption of a common
frame of reference between the segments. For any given MODEL, no target
residue may be repeated among all such independent structure
segments. Potential multi-domain
nature of targets will be addressed in the evaluation even if the prediction
is made in a single frame of reference (i.e. without separation into multiple
segments of structure). For such predictions segmentation should only be
used to allow multiple model predictions (effectively up to 5 predictions
for each such domain).
Note:
The facility to translate sequence - structure alignments (AL format) into
standard PDB atom records (TS format) is available as an additional
AL2TS service.
Order-disorder regions prediction (PFRMAT DR).
Data in this format is inserted between MODEL and END
records of the submission file.
The (three column) format record consists of residue code, Order/Disorder
prediction code, and a number specifying the associated confidence level:
aa OD p
The symbols for
the 2 state order/disorder prediction are 'O'=order, 'D'=disorder.
Last column should indicate a probability of a residue being in the
disordered region. The value of this confidence level is in the
range of 0.0 - 1.0. The entire sequence of the target should
always be given. If parts cannot be predicted a probability of 0.5 should be
used (see Example 5).
Domain boundary prediction (PFRMAT DP).
Data in this format is inserted between MODEL and END
records of the submission file.
You may also specify PARENT field (optional) if you used homologues
in assigning domains. It should be only one parent field per model and
order of parents should correspond to the domain number, i.e. parent listed
first corresponds to the domain assigned by you as number 1 and so on.
The format record consists of consecutive residue number n ,
residue code aa, domain number D and reliability score p
(a real number between 0 (unreliable) and 1 (sure), optional).
n aa D p
The domain numbers are Arabic numerals going from 1
(for the first domain) to N for the N-th domain
(which allows split domains to be easily coded).
Put a dash '-' instead of a domain number if you cannot predict
the domain for a particular residue.
(see Example 6).
Protein function prediction (PFRMAT FN).
Data is inserted between MODEL and END records of the submission file.
The data consist of any number of lines in any order. Each line should start
with one of the following keywords
GO category Molecular Function:
GO category Biological process:
GO category Cellular components:
Binding:
Binding site:
Residue role:
PT modifications:
Comment:
The format of each of the lines is described below:
GO category Molecular Function: Number <, residue1 - residue2>
GO category Biological process: Number <, residue1 - residue2>
GO category Cellular components: Number
Binding: Number1<.Number2> <moleculename>
** Number code id is defined in
Table I
** moleculename as Swissprot id or free text
Binding site: residue1, residue2, ...
or
Binding site: residue1 - residue2, <residue3 - residue4>, ...
** residueN (N=1, 2, ...) are residue numbers in target
Residue role: residue1 role
** residue1 is a residue number in target, role is free text.
PT modifications: Number1.Number2 <<Site1>, <Site2>>
** Number code id is defined in
Table II
** Site1, Site 2 are residue numbers in target, numbered 1 to N
Comment: free text
Residue-Residue separation prediction (PFRMAT RR).
Data in this format is inserted between MODEL and END records of the
submission file.
Format for the predicted separation distance between pairs of residues.
The distance is defined as the separation between C-beta atoms (C-alpha for
glycine residues).
The (five column) RR format:
i j d1 d2 p
Notes (see Example 2):
- entire target sequence should be split over multiple lines with a
maximum of 50 residues per line
- for intrachain residue-residue contacts residue number indices
i and j should be used for distance specification (i < j), i.e.
only one diagonal of the separation matrix should be supplied
- the distances d1 and d2 (real numbers) should indicate the range of
Cb-Cb distance predicted for the residue pair (C-alpha for glycines)
- the real number p should range from 0.0 - 1.0 to indicate
probability of the distance falling between the predicted range
- residue 'contacts' (defined here - as in CASP2 - as Cb-Cb<8A) can be
predicted with this format as:
i j 0 8 p
- any pair NOT listed is assumed to be NOT considered by predictor
END record is used for all predictions and indicates the end of a
single model submission.
Predictions of multichain targets.
Atomic coordinates should contain chain IDs as provided in template files.
In residue-residue contact predictions residue
indices should be composed of chain ID and residue number, e.g. A2, B44
(see Example 4B).
