Definition

The PAE energy is the mean predicted alignment error between two residue groups, normalized by a maximum PAE value. EPAE=1NpairsαG1,βG2PAEαβPAEmaxE_{\mathrm{PAE}} = \frac{1}{N_{\mathrm{pairs}}} \sum_{\alpha \in G_1, \beta \in G_2} \frac{\mathrm{PAE}_{\alpha\beta}}{\mathrm{PAE}_{\max}}
  • PAEαβ\mathrm{PAE}_{\alpha\beta} is the predicted alignment error between residues α\alpha and β\beta
  • PAEmax\mathrm{PAE}_{\max} is 30 Angstrom (the approximate maximum PAE value)
  • G1G_1 and G2G_2 are the two residue groups
  • NpairsN_{\mathrm{pairs}} is the number of residue pairs considered

Parameters

FoldingOracle
required
The oracle to use for the energy term.
list[list[Residue]]
required
Which residues to include in the first and second group.
bool
default:"True"
If a new residue is added next to a residue included in this energy term, this dictates whether that new residue could then be added to this energy term.
bool
default:"True"
Whether to only consider the uncertainty in distance between group 1 and group 2 atoms. If set to False, also considers the uncertainty in distances between atoms within the same group.
float
default:"1.0"
The weight of the energy term.
str | None
default:"None"
Optional name to append to the energy term name.
