چکیده
This article is an introduction to the special issue of the journal Proteins, dedicated to the sixth CASP experiment to assess the state of the art in protein structure prediction. The article describes the conduct of the experiment and the categories of prediction included, and outlines the evaluation and assessment procedures. A brief summary of progress over the decade of CASP experiments is also provided. Proteins 2005;Suppl 7:3–7. © 2005Wiley-Liss, Inc.

P-85: How a Frame Shift Caused by a Single Base Deletion In SEPT12 Gene Shed Lights As a Polymorphism
Background: Septins are members of highly conserved polymerizing GTP binding proteins well described in the animal kingdom. 14 Septin proteins have been characterized in humans (SEPT1-SEPT14), some of which are tissue-specific. All of 14 genome-mapped human septins contain a highly conserved central GTP-binding domain which is very critical in GTPase signaling properties as well as oligomerizat...
متن کاملMolecular Modelling and Evaluation of Hidden Information in ABCB11 Gene Mutations
Background: Cholestatic disorders are divided in the extra and intra-hepatic that created due to the severe liver diseases. ABCB11 encodes the bile salt export pump and this gene is mutated in several forms of intrahepatic cholestasis. So far, some molecular features of this gene was studies.Objective: Using a developed web server, we identified high number of rare codons in this gene, and four...
متن کاملSite-Specific PEGylation of Recombinant Immunotoxin DAB389IL-2: Structural and Functional Assessment
Background: DAB389IL-2 is considered a fusion immunotoxin and it is used for the CTCL therapy. DAB389IL-2 includes of two distinct portions; the catalytic domain of diphtheria toxin and IL-2. DAB389IL-2 duo to the presence of a free cysteine residue (Cys 513 in IL-2 part) is prone to unwanted intramolecular and intermolecular disulfide bonds formation and aggregation problems. Aggregation is co...
متن کاملEngineering Critical Assessment for Offshore Pipeline with Semi Elliptical Surface Cracks in Girth Weld – Comparison of FEM and BS7910 Guideline
Economical design with sufficient fracture resistance is of high importance in any offshore pipeline projects. Using an Engineering Critical Assessment (ECA), alternate acceptance criteria for pipeline girth weld inspection can significantly reduce the cost of constructing of offshore oil and gas pipeline by minimizing unnecessary repairs. Offshore pipelines consist of short pipeline segments c...
متن کاملProtein Secondary Structure Prediction: a Literature Review with Focus on Machine Learning Approaches
DNA sequence, containing all genetic traits is not a functional entity. Instead, it transfers to protein sequences by transcription and translation processes. This protein sequence takes on a 3D structure later, which is a functional unit and can manage biological interactions using the information encoded in DNA. Every life process one can figure is undertaken by proteins with specific functio...
متن کاملInvestigating the Impact of Collaborative and Static Assessment on the Iranian EFL Students’ Reading comprehension, Critical Thinking, and Metacognitive Strategies of Reading
This study was aimed at investigating the effect of collaborative assessment, as compared to that of static assessment, on the EFL learners’ reading comprehension, metacognitive strategies, and critical thinking. In this mixed-methods research design study, 62 intermediate EFL learners out of a population of 79 English language learners, were randomly selected and divided into two groups of exp...
