Aaron S. Chou for the Sld Collaboration

We present recent measurements by SLD of the branching fractions of B hadrons to states with 0 and 2 open charm hadrons, BR 0D and BR 2D , from which both the average charm yield per B decay, N c and the inclusive branching ratio into rare modes not containing any charmed hadrons, BR rare can be derived. We also present a new measurement of the B d mixing frequency ∆m d and limits on the B s mi...

Why the Chou-Fasman parameters are not reliable in protein secondary structure prediction Keywords: Chou-Fasman parameters / Protein prediction / Secondary structure

The Chou-Fasman method has been a widely used method for protein secondary structure prediction. This method is based on knowledge about amino acid residues potential to form αhelical regions or β-sheet regions in proteins. Our main interest in this study was to examine the reliability of these Chou-Fasman parameters. We have calculated the Chou-Fasman parameters, with 95% confidence limits, ou...

ACHIEVEMENTS OF COMMUNIST' CHINESE CHEMISTRY IN THE PAST TEN YEARS By Wu Hsueh-chou

A computerized version of the Chou and Fasman method for predicting the secondary structure of proteins.

A novel computerized program has been developed for predicting the secondary structure of proteins from their amino acid sequences. The scheme of the Chou and Fasman method (1978, Adv. Enzymol. Relat. Subj. Biochem. 47, 45-148) is closely followed. Some of their qualitative rules have been converted to numeric scales to obtain unambiguous predictions. This program has been tested on 21 proteins...
