چکیده

DomCut is a program to predict inter-domain linker regions solely by amino acid sequence information. The prediction is made by using linker index deduced from a data set of domain/linker segments. The linker preference profile, which is the averaged linker index along a sequence, can be visualized in the graphical interface.

Cloning and Characterization of cbhII Gene fromTrichoderma parceramosum and Its Expressionin Pichia pastoris

The genomic and cDNA clones encoding cellobiohydrolase II (CBHII) have been isolated and sequenced from a native Iranian isolate of Trichoderma parceramosum, a high cellulolytic enzymes producer isolate. This represents the first report of cbhII gene from this organism. Comparison of genomic and cDNA sequences indicates this gene contains three short introns and also an open reading frame codin...

Prediction of protein interdomain linker regions by a hidden Markov model

MOTIVATION Our aim was to predict protein interdomain linker regions using sequence alone, without requiring known homology. Identifying linker regions will delineate domain boundaries, and can be used to computationally dissect proteins into domains prior to clustering them into families. We developed a hidden Markov model of linker/non-linker sequence regions using a linker index derived from...

Domain Linker Region Knowledge Contributes to Protein-protein Interaction Prediction

Protein-protein interaction has proven to be a valuable piece of biological knowledge and a starting point for understanding the internal workings of the cell. In this paper, we propose a novel method for protein-protein interaction prediction using only the primary structural information of the protein sequence. The method is developed based on inter-domain linker region knowledge and a combin...

Designing Of Degenerate Primers-Based Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) For Amplification Of WD40 Repeat-Containing Proteins Using Local Allignment Search Method

Degenerate primers-based polymerase chain reaction (PCR) are commonly used for isolation of unidentified gene sequences in related organisms. For designing the degenerate primers, we propose the use of local alignment search method for searching the conserved regions long enough to design an acceptable primer pair. To test this method, a WD40 repeat-containing domain protein from Beauveria bass...

Structural properties of the linkers connecting the N- and C- terminal domains in the MocR bacterial transcriptional regulators

Peptide inter-domain linkers are peptide segments covalently linking two adjacent domains within a protein. Linkers play a variety of structural and functional roles in naturally occurring proteins. In this work we analyze the sequence properties of the predicted linker regions of the bacterial transcriptional regulators belonging to the recently discovered MocR subfamily of the GntR regulators...
