A MODEL FOR THE BASIC HELIX- LOOPHELIX MOTIF AND ITS SEQUENCE SPECIFIC RECOGNITION OF DNA
A three dimensional model of the basic Helix-Loop-Helix motif and its sequence specific recognition of DNA is described. The basic-helix I is modeled as a continuous ?-helix because no ?-helix breaking residue is found between the basic region and the first helix. When the basic region of the two peptide monomers are aligned in the successive major groove of the cognate DNA, the hydrophobi...
متن کاملEstimation and reliability of molecular sequence alignments.
The problem of estimating the relatedness of a pair of biological sequences is addressed. A stochastic model of sequence evolution is described that allows insertion and deletion as well as replacement of amino acid residues (or substitution of nucleotides) over time. An expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm that obtains maximum likelihood estimates of the model parameters is introduced. The ...
متن کاملMining Features for Sequence Classiication
Classi cation algorithms are di cult to apply to sequential examples, such as plan executions or text, because there is a vast number of potentially useful features for describing each example. Past work on feature selection has focused on searching the space of all subsets of the available features which is intractable for large feature sets. We adapt data mining techniques to act as a preproc...
متن کاملMonopole Antenna Radar Cross Section Reduction with Plasma Helix
In this paper, a new method for radar cross section reduction of a monopole antenna is proposed. In this method, a plasma helix like fluorescent bulbs is placed around the antenna element. The selected plasma parameter for this medium acts as an absorber without disturbing the antenna performance. The simulations show that radar cross section of simulated antenna is reduced in a wide frequency ...
متن کاملDNA recognition for virus assembly through multiple sequence-independent interactions with a helix-turn-helix motif.
The helix-turn-helix (HTH) motif features frequently in protein DNA-binding assemblies. Viral pac site-targeting small terminase proteins possess an unusual architecture in which the HTH motifs are displayed in a ring, distinct from the classical HTH dimer. Here we investigate how such a circular array of HTH motifs enables specific recognition of the viral genome for initiation of DNA packagin...
