Comparison of the complete protein sets of worm and yeast: orthology and divergence.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Comparative analysis of predicted protein sequences encoded by the genomes of Caenorhabditis elegans and Saccharomyces cerevisiae suggests that most of the core biological functions are carried out by orthologous proteins (proteins of different species that can be traced back to a common ancestor) that occur in comparable numbers. The specialized processes of signal transduction and regulatory control that are unique to the multicellular worm appear to use novel proteins, many of which re-use conserved domains. Major expansion of the number of some of these domains seen in the worm may have contributed to the advent of multicellularity. The proteins conserved in yeast and worm are likely to have orthologs throughout eukaryotes; in contrast, the proteins unique to the worm may well define metazoans.

Decision making in medical investigations using new divergence measures for intuitionistic fuzzy sets
In recent times, intuitionistic fuzzy sets introduced by Atanassov has been one of the most powerful and flexible approaches for dealing with complex and uncertain situations of real world. In particular, the concept of divergence between intuitionistic fuzzy sets is important since it has applications in various areas such as image segmentation, decision making, medical diagnosis, pattern reco...

Srivastava and Maheshwari (Iranian Journal of Fuzzy Systems 13(1)(2016) 25-44) introduced a new divergence measure for intuitionisticfuzzy sets (IFSs). The properties of the proposed divergence measurewere studied and the efficiency of the proposed divergence measurein the context of medical diagnosis was also demonstrated. In thisnote, we point out some errors in ...
متن کاملStability of Recombinant Proteins in Escherichia coli: The Effect of Co-Expression of Five Different Chaperone Sets
Chaperones are produced by prokaryotic, yeast and higher eukaryotic cells for various purposes. Over-expression of each chaperone or sets of them affect the production level of a recombinant protein in the cell. On the basis of this hypothesis, five different plasmids with 5 different combinations of 6 chaperones molecule, transformed into Escherichia coli along with human basic Fibroblast Grow...

Macromolecular assemblies play an important role in almost all cellular processes. However, despite several large-scale studies, our current knowledge about protein complexes is still quite limited, thus advocating the use of in silico predictions to gather information on complex composition in model organisms. Since protein-protein interactions present certain constraints on the functional div...
