Abstract:

Similarity searches are an essential component to most bioinformatic applications. They form the bases of structural motif identification, gene identification, and insights into functional associations. With the rapid increase in the available genetic data through a wide variety of databases, similarity searches are an essential tool for accessing these data in an informative and productive way. In our chapter, we provide an overview of similarity searching approaches, related databases, and parameter options to achieve the best results for a variety of applications. We then provide a worked e

Abstract:

ODC activity of the altered proteins was measured and compared to that of the full length 461 amino acid containing ODC. Mouse ODC cDNA sequences were deleted from either 5' or 3' ends using exonuclease III and Mung Bean nuclease treatments. An internal deletion was obtained by Hinc II and Bcl I restriction endonuclease digestion of the full length ODC cDNA. Capped mRNAs were synthesized in vitro using the resulting deleted DNA as templates, and the protein was translated in vitro. The results indicate that the protein in which translation initiates at internal AUG start codons does not have a

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Selective pressures at the DNA level shape genes into profiles consisting of patterns of rapidly evolving sites and sites withstanding change. These profiles remain detectable even when protein sequences become extensively diverged. A common task in molecular biology is to infer functional, structural or evolutionary relationships by querying a database using an algorithm. However, problems arise when sequence similarity is low. This study presents an algorithm that uses the evolutionary rate at codon sites, the dN/dS (ω) parameter, coupled to a substitution matrix as an alignment

Abstract:

Single amino acid variants (SAVs) are one of the main causes of Mendelian disorders, and play an important role in the development of many complex diseases. At the same time, they are the most common kind of variation affecting coding DNA, without generally presenting any damaging effect. With the advent of next generation sequencing technologies, the detection of these variants in patients and the general population is easier than ever, but the characterization of the functional effects of each variant remains an open challenge. It is our objective in this work to tackle this problem by deve

Abstract:

Microvitellogenin is a female specific yolk protein from the tobacco hornworm moth Manduca sexta. A cDNA library was constructed from poly (A)⁺ RNA isolated from adult female fat body. cDNA clones of mRNA for microvitellogenin were isolated by screening the cDNA library with antiserum against microvitellogenin. The results of Northern blot analysis and hybrid selection indicated that the cDNA clone was specific for microvitellogenin. The complete nucleotide sequence of the 834 base pair cDNA insert has been determined by the dideoxy chain termination method. The deduced amino acid sequence was

Abstract:

Lysyl oxidase initiates crosslinking in collagens and elastin by the conversion of specific lysine (and, in collagen, hydroxylysine) residues to peptidyl α-aminoadipic-δ-semialdehyde. Porcine skin lysyl oxidase (M<SUB>r</SUB>=34K) and a protein (M<SUB>r</SUB>=24K) with which the enzyme co-purifies have been isolated and characterised. The 24K protein was originally thought to be a degradation product of lysyl oxidase but this study shows it to be a distinct protein. Four variants of lysyl oxidase and five variants of the 24K protein were identified by Mono Q anion-exchange Fast Protein Liquid

The work undertaken within this thesis is towards the development of a representative set of sequence driven features for the prediction of structural classes of proteins. Proteins are biological molecules that make living things function, to determine the function of a protein the structure must be known because the structure dictates its physical capabilities. A protein is generally classified into one of the four main structural classes, namely all-α, all-β, α + β or α / β, which are based on the arrangements and gross content of the secondary structure elements.

The present study was undertaken to examine the distribution of biological apatite within type I collagen fibrils of calcifying turkey leg tendons. The localization of apatite was determined by both bright field and selected-area dark field electron microscopy and was correlated with specific classes of amino acids from chick type I collagen sequence data by computer modelling. These electron microscopic techniques illustrated that apatite occurs in both the gap and overlap zones at early stages of mineralization in an asymmetric pattern which corresponds to the polarized IM- to C- molecular o

Abstract:

Collagen is the most abundant protein in vertebrates. In particular, fibrillar collagens are found in bone, tendon, dermis, ligament, cartilage, cornea and blood vessel walls to mention but a few. Fibrillar collagens can be thought of as rigid linear structures and therefore are relatively simple to study from a theoretical point of view. In this thesis, a study on fibrillar collagen packing is presented. Since these collagens can be represented by a linear sequence of elements, it is possible to represent the hydrophobic or the electrostatic interactions between two collagen molecules by mean

Abstract:

Proteins are the basic building blocks of biological organisms, and are responsible for a variety of functions within them. Proteins are composed of unique amino acid sequences. Some has only one sequence, while others contain several sequences that are combined together. These combined amino acid sequences fold to form a unique three-dimensional (3D) shape. Although the sequences may fold proteins into different 3D shapes in diverse environments, proteins with similar amino acid sequences typically have similar 3D shapes and functions. Knowledge of the 3D shape of a protein is important in b
