- Abstract
Protein-DNA interactions are involved in many biological processes essential for gene expression and regulation. To understand the molecular mechanisms of protein-DNA recognition, it is crucial to analyze and identify DNA-binding residues of protein-DNA complexes. Here, we proposed a novel descriptor shape string and another two related features shape string PSSM and shape string pair composition to characterize DNA-binding residues. We employed the new features and the position-specific scoring matrix (PSSM) for modeling and prediction. The results of a benchmark dataset showed that our approach significantly improved the accuracy of the predictor. The overall accuracy of our approach reached 85.86% with 85.02% sensitivity and 86.02%... (More)

The overall accuracy of our approach reached 85.86% with 85.02% sensitivity and 86.02% specificity. The results also demonstrated that shape string is a powerful descriptor for the prediction of DNA-binding residues. The additional two related features enhanced the predictive value.
