Using the radial distributions of physical features to compare amino acid environments and align amino acid sequences.
We have performed a comprehensive analysis of the microenvironments surrounding the twenty amino acids. Our analysis includes comparison of amino acid environments with random control environments as well as with each of the other amino acid environments. We describe the amino acid environments with a set of 21 features summarizing atomic, chemical group, residue, and secondary structural featu...
متن کاملAn analysis of amino acid sequences surrounding archaeal glycoprotein sequons.
Despite having provided the first example of a prokaryal glycoprotein, little is known of the rules governing the N-glycosylation process in Archaea. As in Eukarya and Bacteria, archaeal N-glycosylation takes place at the Asn residues of Asn-X-Ser/Thr sequons. Since not all sequons are utilized, it is clear that other factors, including the context in which a sequon exists, affect glycosylation...
متن کاملAlphabet Indexing by Cluster Analysis: A Method for Knowledge Acquisition from Amino Acid Sequences
Knowledge acquisition has been an important topic in Arti cial Intelligence and a variety of contributions have been made in various elds where computers can be applied. Genome Informatics is one of the most attracting elds for which knowledge acquisition techniques are strongly expected. In [3] a knowledge acquisiton system for sequence data has been developed and has shown successful experime...
متن کاملAn efficient strategy using k-mers to analyse 16S rRNA sequences
The use of k-mers has been a successful strategy for improving metagenomics studies, including taxonomic classifications, or de novo assemblies, and can be used to obtain sequences of interest from the available databases. The aim of this manuscript was to propose a simple but efficient strategy to generate k-mers and to use them to obtain and analyse in silico 16S rRNA sequence fragments. A to...
متن کاملA cluster of hydrophobic amino acid residues required for fast Na(+)-channel inactivation.
The inward Na+ current underlying the action potential in nerve is terminated by inactivation. The preceding report shows that deletions within the intracellular linker between domains III and IV remove inactivation, but mutation of conserved basic and paired acidic amino acids has little effect. Here we show that substitution of glutamine for three clustered hydrophobic amino acids, Ile-1488, ...
