چکیده
Mapping sequence data with the available structures from Protein Data Bank (PDB), it is possible to generate hypothesis about role of Spike mutations in ACE2 binding. Methodologically, there are several approaches.

the effect of functional/notional approach on the proficiency level of efl learners and its evaluation through functional test
in fact, this study focused on the following questions: 1. is there any difference between the effect of functional/notional approach and the structural approaches to language teaching on the proficiency test of efl learners? 2. can a rather innovative language test referred to as "functional test" ge devised so so to measure the proficiency test of efl learners, and thus be as much reliable an...
15 صفحه اولPredicting the functional consequences of cancer-associated amino acid substitutions
MOTIVATION The number of missense mutations being identified in cancer genomes has greatly increased as a consequence of technological advances and the reduced cost of whole-genome/whole-exome sequencing methods. However, a high proportion of the amino acid substitutions detected in cancer genomes have little or no effect on tumour progression (passenger mutations). Therefore, accurate automate...
متن کاملExpanding the phenotype of LMNA mutations in dilated cardiomyopathy and functional consequences of these mutations.
AIMS Mutations in the lamin A/C gene (LMNA) have been reported to be involved in dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) associated with conduction system disease and/or skeletal myopathy. The aim of this study was to perform a mutational analysis of LMNA in a large white population of patients affected by dilated cardiomyopathy with or without associated symptoms. METHODS We performed screening of the ...
متن کاملFunctional consequences of naturally occurring mutations in human uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase.
Functional consequences of 12 mutations-10 missense, 1 splicing defect, and 1 frameshift mutation-were characterized in the uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase (URO-D) gene found in Utah pedigrees with familial porphyria cutanea tarda (F-PCT). All but one mutation altered a restriction site in the URO-D gene, permitting identification of affected relatives using a combination of polymerase chain rea...
متن کاملStructural and functional consequences of succinate dehydrogenase subunit B mutations.
Mitochondrial dysfunction, due to mutations of the gene encoding succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), has been implicated in the development of adrenal phaeochromocytomas, sympathetic and parasympathetic paragangliomas, renal cell carcinomas, gastrointestinal stromal tumours and more recently pituitary tumours. Underlying mechanisms behind germline SDH subunit B (SDHB) mutations and their associated ...
