Typically RMSD is used as a quantitative measure of similarity between two or more protein structures. For example, the CASP protein structure prediction competition uses RMSD as one of its assessments of how well a submitted structure matches the known, target structure. Thus the lower RMSD, the better the model is in comparison to the target ...
A free PyMol plugin easily implementing Kabsch is . (This previously linked to CEalign , but this uses the Combinatorial Extension (CE) algorithm.) VMD uses the Kabsch algorithm for its alignment. The FoldX modeling toolsuite incorporates the Kabsch algorithm to measure RMSD between Wild Type and Mutated protein structures.
In bioinformatics, the root mean square deviation of atomic positions is the measure of the average distance between the atoms of superimposed proteins. In structure based drug design, the RMSD is a measure of the difference between a crystal conformation of the ligand conformation and a docking prediction.
The linear relationship between the MSD and time t allows for graphical methods to determine the diffusivity constant D. This is especially useful for rough calculations of the diffusivity in environmental systems. In some atmospheric dispersion models, the relationship between MSD and time t is not linear. Instead, a series of power laws ...
The outputs of a structural alignment are a superposition of the atomic coordinate sets and a minimal root mean square deviation between the structures. The RMSD of two aligned structures indicates their divergence from one another. Structural alignment can be complicated by the existence of multiple protein domains within one or more of the ...
The TM-score is intended as a more accurate measure of the global similarity of full-length protein structures than the often used RMSD measure. The TM-score indicates the similarity between two structures by a score between (,], where 1 indicates a perfect match between two structures (thus the higher the better). [1]
Essentially the CV(RMSD) replaces the standard deviation term with the Root Mean Square Deviation (RMSD). While many natural processes indeed show a correlation between the average value and the amount of variation around it, accurate sensor devices need to be designed in such a way that the coefficient of variation is close to zero, i.e ...
Examples of correlation between RCI and other methods of measuring motional amplitudes in proteins. NMR RMSD - root mean square fluctuations of atomic coordinates in NMR ensembles, MD RMSD - root mean square fluctuations of atomic coordinates in MD ensembles, S2 - model-free order parameter, RCI - random coil index, B-factor - temperature factor of X-ray structures; RCI->NMR RMSD - root mean ...
