Single-molecule protein sequencing through fingerprinting: computational assessment.
Proteins are vital in all biological systems as they constitute the main structural and functional components of cells. Recent advances in mass spectrometry have brought the promise of complete proteomics by helping draft the human proteome. Yet, this commonly used protein sequencing technique has fundamental limitations in sensitivity. Here we propose a method for single-molecule (SM) protein ...
متن کاملSingle Molecule Imaging
X-ray based methods are one of the premier tools for determining structure of a broad range of materials at the atomic level. Such information, including that on biological materials, has driven discovery and advances in many ways that range from gaining fundamental insights into structure-function relations to guiding the development of new materials based upon knowledge of structure. Diffract...
متن کاملImaging of single-molecule translocation through nuclear pore complexes.
Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) mediate bidirectional transport of proteins, RNAs, and ribonucleoprotein complexes across the double-membrane nuclear envelope. In vitro studies with purified transport cofactors have revealed a general scheme of cofactor-dependent transport energetically driven by the G protein Ran. However, the size and complexity of NPCs have made it difficult to clearly define ...
متن کاملInteraction of HCN Molecule with the Pristine and Al, S and Al & S Doped Beryllium Oxide Nanotube: A Computational Study
In this research, the effects of Al&S doped on the HCN interaction with beryllium oxide nanotube (BeONTs) are investigated by using density functional theory at the cam-B3LYP/6-31G (d) level of theory. Inspection of computational results reveals that the adsorption energies of all considered models are in range of −1.39 to −31.84 Kcal/mol and exothermic in view of thermodynamic approach. Due to...
متن کاملSingle-molecule and transient kinetics investigation of the interaction of dihydrofolate reductase with NADPH and dihydrofolate.
The interaction of dihydrofolate (H(2)F) and NADPH with a fluorescent derivative of H(2)F reductase (DHFR) was studied by using transient and single-molecule techniques. The fluorescent moiety Alexa 488 was attached to the structural loop that closes over the substrates after they are bound. Fluorescence quenching was found to accompany the binding of both substrates and the hydride transfer re...
