Identification of unknown proteins in X-ray crystallography and cryo-EM
Abstract Although experimental protein structure determination usually targets known proteins, chains of unknown sequence are often encountered. They can be purified from natural sources, appear as an unexpected fragment of a well characterized protein or as a contaminant. Regardless of the source of the problem, the unknown protein always requires tedious characterization. Here we present an automated pipeline for the identification of protein sequences from cryo-EM reconstructions and crystallographic data. We present the method’s application to characterize the crystal structure of an unknown protein purified from a snake venom. We also show that the approach can be successfully applied to the identification of protein sequences and validation of sequence assignments in cryo-EM protein structures..
