Constructing Scripts Compositionally: A Molecular Biology
نویسندگان
چکیده
This Working Note follows on from the previousWorking Note 17 [Clark and Porter, 2000], to present another example of constructing scripts compositionally. This example is from molecular biology, describing how a virus passes its contents (the capsid) to a cell. The reader is referred to the previous working note for a discussion of general approach. Again, the document shows two variant formulations of the representation, one using KM classes, and one using KM “prototypes”, followed by a machinegenerated dump of the graphlets produced from the prototype specifications. The main purpose of this note is to show KM implementations of a more detailed example of script composition.

Athena: Modular CAM/CAD Software for Synthetic Biology
Synthetic biology is the engineering of cellular networks. It combines principles of engineering and the knowledge of biological networks to program the behavior of cells. Computational modeling techniques in conjunction with molecular biology techniques have been successful in constructing biological devices such as switches, oscillators, and gates. The ambition of synthetic biology is to cons...
متن کاملA novel sensitive method for the detection of user-defined compositional bias in biological sequences
MOTIVATION Most biological sequences contain compositionally biased segments in which one or more residue types are significantly overrepresented. The function and evolution of these segments are poorly understood. Usually, all types of compositionally biased segments are masked and ignored during sequence analysis. However, it has been shown for a number of proteins that biased segments that c...

The genus Fritillaria comprises of 165 taxa of medicinal, ornamental and horticultural importance. Evolutionary relationships in this genus is an interesting research area, attracting many researchers. In this study, phylogenetic relationships among 18 native to endemic species in Iran belonging to four subgenera Petilium, Theresia, Rhinopetalum and Fritillaria, are assessed using chloroplast t...

متن کاملTmiRUSite and TmiROSite scripts: searching for mRNA fragments with miRNA binding sites with encoded amino acid residues
UNLABELLED microRNAs are small RNA molecules that inhibit the translation of target genes. microRNA binding sites are located in the untranslated regions as well as in the coding domains. We describe TmiRUSite and TmiROSite scripts developed using python as tools for the extraction of nucleotide sequences for miRNA binding sites with their encoded amino acid residue sequences. The scripts allow...
