AbstractBackground: Many critical biological processes are strongly related to protein-RNA interactions. Revealing the protein structure motifs for RNA-binding will provide valuable information for deciphering protein-RNA recognition mechanisms and benefit complementary structural design in bioengineering. RNA-binding events often take place at pockets on protein surfaces. The structural classification of local binding pockets determines the major patterns of RNA recognition. Results: In this work, we provide a novel framework for systematically identifying the structure motifs of protein-RNA binding sites in the form of pockets on regional protein surfaces via a structure alignment-based method. We first construct a similarity network of RNA-binding pockets based on a non-sequential-order structure alignment method for local structure alignment. By using network community decomposition, the RNA-binding pockets on protein surfaces are clustered into groups with structural similarity. With a multiple structure alignment strategy, the consensus RNA-binding pockets in each group are identified. The crucial recognition patterns, as well as the protein-RNA binding motifs, are then identified and analyzed. Conclusions: Large-scale RNA-binding pockets on protein surfaces are grouped by measuring their structural similarities. This similarity network-based framework provides a convenient method for modeling the structural relationships of functional pockets. The local structural patterns identified serve as structure motifs for the recognition with RNA on protein surfaces.
