Abstract:
|
Determining the three-dimensional structures for large proteins using multidimensional Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) poses a formidable undertaking because of systematic noise, local correlated noise, and a large number of protons that resonate at similar frequencies. The primary objective of the research presented in this talk is to develop a statistical technique for identification and characterization of multi-dimensional NMR spectra. Our statistical method takes a novel overall perspective: (1) It incorporates a preliminary step for separating the signal from the background using a method that adapts for sharp changes in the data and non-homogeneous signal; (2) The locations, widths and amplitudes of the NMR spectra are estimated using a computational efficient algorithm; (3) It detects mixtures of spectra to solve ambiguities due to protons with similar resonance frequencies.
