Abstract

Predicting the tertiary structure of protein from its primary amino acid sequence is a challenging mission for bioinformatics. In this paper we proposes a novel approach of predicting the tertiary structure of protein using the flexible neural tree (FNT) to construct a tree classification model. Two feature extraction methods (the physicochemical composition (PCC)) and the recurrence quantification analysis (RQA)) are employed to extract the features of protein sequence. To value the efficiencies of the proposed method we select two benchmark protein sequence datasets (1189 dataset and 640 dataset), as the test data set. The experimental results show that the proposed method is efficient for the protein structure prediction.
