Cascleave: towards more accurate prediction of caspase substrate cleavage sites
MOTIVATION The caspase family of cysteine proteases play essential roles in key biological processes such as programmed cell death, differentiation, proliferation, necrosis and inflammation. The complete repertoire of caspase substrates remains to be fully characterized. Accordingly, systematic computational screening studies of caspase substrate cleavage sites may provide insight into the subs...
متن کاملA More Accurate Prediction of Liquid Evaporation Flux
In this work, a more accurate prediction of liquid evaporation flux has been achieved. The statistical rate theory approach, which is recently introduced by Ward and Fang and exact estimation of vapor pressure in the layer adjacent to the liquid–vapor interface have been used for prediction of this flux. Firstly, the existence of an equilibrium layer adjacent to the liquid-vapor interface ...
متن کاملTowards more accurate prediction of ubiquitination sites: a comprehensive review of current methods, tools and features
Protein ubiquitination is one of the most important reversible post-translational modifications (PTMs). In many biochemical, pathological and pharmaceutical studies on understanding the function of proteins in biological processes, identification of ubiquitination sites is an important first step. However, experimental approaches for identifying ubiquitination sites are often expensive, labor-i...
متن کاملScreenCap3: Improving prediction of caspase-3 cleavage sites using experimentally verified noncleavage sites
Because of its wide range of substrates, caspase-3, a main executioner among apoptosis-related caspases, is thought to have many unknown substrates that have remained unidentified. This report describes our predictive method to facilitate the discovery of novel caspase-3 substrates. To develop a more reliable prediction method, we specifically examined improvement of the data quantity and quali...
متن کاملPrediction of caspase cleavage sites using Bayesian bio-basis function neural networks
MOTIVATION Apoptosis has drawn the attention of researchers because of its importance in treating some diseases through finding a proper way to block or slow down the apoptosis process. Having understood that caspase cleavage is the key to apoptosis, we find novel methods or algorithms are essential for studying the specificity of caspase cleavage activity and this helps the effective drug desi...
