Amino Acid Metric Solution (Atchley et al 2005)

Description

Atchley et al 2005 performed factor analysis on a set of Amino Acid Indices (AA54) and inferred a 5 factor latent variable structure relating amino acid characteristics using SAS. Based on the relationship between factors and variable descriptions, the latent variables are defined as Factor1 (PAH): Polarity, Accessibility, Hydrophobicity; Factor2 (PSS): Propensity for Secondary Structure; Factor3 (MS) : Molecular Size; Factor4 (CC): Codon Composition; Factor5 (EC): Electrostatic Charge. AAMetric.Atchley are scores from the factor analysis which convey the similarities and differences among amino acids (rows) for each latent variable (columns).

Format

Rows are alphabetized Amino Acids and the 5 columns are factors where Factor1 (PAH): Polarity, Accessibility, Hydrophobicity; Factor2 (PSS): Propensity for Secondary Structure; Factor3 (MS) : Molecular Size; Factor4 (CC): Codon Composition; Factor5 (EC): Electrostatic Charge.

Details

54 Amino Acid Indices were selected from www.genome.jp/aaindex to quantify physiochemical attributes. Using Factor Analysis on 5 factors, interpretable latent variables were determined to quantify Amino Acid attributes. These are the scores from the published factor analysis calculated by SAS. The proportion of common variation for each factor are 42.3
