Structural Prediction and Domain Analysis of BRCA1 Using AlphaFold

Overview

This project focuses on the structural analysis of the BRCA1 protein using the AlphaFold Protein Structure Database. The study includes protein structure visualization, pLDDT confidence analysis, Predicted Aligned Error (PAE) interpretation, and domain organization analysis.


Protein Information

Parameter Details
Protein BRCA1
Organism Homo sapiens
UniProt ID P38398

Tools Used

  • AlphaFold Protein Structure Database
  • UniProt
  • Protein Data Bank (PDB)

Workflow

  1. Retrieve BRCA1 structure from AlphaFold
  2. Visualize the predicted 3D structure
  3. Analyze pLDDT confidence scores
  4. Examine PAE plots
  5. Study domain organization and flexible regions

Key Findings

  • BRCA1 contains both structured and disordered regions
  • High-confidence domains were identified using pLDDT scores
  • PAE analysis revealed flexible linker regions
  • Domain analysis showed modular structural organization

Repository Contents

  • Project Report (PDF)
  • AlphaFold screenshots
  • Structural analysis images
