Protein Structure Alignment Protein Structure Alignment
If we know the structures of the proteins A and B, and the function of protein A, then if we can detect structural similarity between A and B by producing an alignment between them, it can help us infer functionality of B. The problem of protein structure alignment is essentially similar to the sequence alignment; the fact that we have to do structural alignment in 3-d adds to the complexity of...
متن کاملFouling mechanisms during protein microfiltration: The effects of protein structure and filtration pressure on polypropylene microporous membrane performance
A polypropylene microporous membrane (PPMM) was fabricated by thermally induced phase separation (TIPS) method. The effects of protein size and structure as well as filtration pressure on the membrane performance and fouling mechanisms were investigated using two different proteins, bovine serum albumin (BSA) and collagen, in dead-end filtration setup. Obtained results showed that, for each pro...
متن کاملSecondary and tertiary protein structure I. Hierarchy of protein structure
Four levels in protein structural organization are commonly identified. Primary structure is a sequence of amino acids. Secondary structure is represented by regular local conformations of polypeptide chain, such as α-helix or β-strand. The combinations of two secondary structure elements are also sometimes referred to as secondary (or supersecondary) structure. The example is a β-hairpin forme...
متن کاملGlories of protein structure
When the history of 20th century science is written, surely the chapter on determining the structure of molecules by X-ray crystallography, NMR, and electron microscopy will be one of the most prominent, with the structures of proteins and viruses being the culminating glory. No current book illustrates and explains these glories more effectively and concisely than Branden and Tooze’s second ed...
متن کاملBayesian Protein Structure Alignment.
The analysis of the three-dimensional structure of proteins is an important topic in molecular biochemistry. Structure plays a critical role in defining the function of proteins and is more strongly conserved than amino acid sequence over evolutionary timescales. A key challenge is the identification and evaluation of structural similarity between proteins; such analysis can aid in understandin...
