Systematically assessing the influence of 3-dimensional structural context on the molecular evolution of mammalian proteomes.

چکیده
The 3-dimensional (3D) structural context of amino acid residues in a protein could significantly impact the level of selective constraint on the residues. Here, by analyzing 767 mammalian proteins, we systematically investigate how various 3D structural contexts influence selective constraint. The structural contexts we examined include solvent accessibility, secondary structure, and intramolecular residue-residue interactions. Through this analysis, we offer quantitative information on how 3D structural contexts affect the level of selective constraint.

Modeling the Tensile Behavior of Fibers with Geometrical and Structural Irregularities
Virtually all fibers exhibit some dimensional and structural irregularities. These include the conventional textile fibers, the high-performance brittle fibers and even the newly developed nano-fibers. In recent years, we have systematically examined the effect of fiber dimensional irregularities on the mechanical behavior of the irregular fibers. This paper extends our research to include the ...
متن کاملStructural Characteristics of Stable Folding Intermediates of Yeast Iso-1-Cytochrome-c
Cytochrome-c (cyt-c) is an electron transport protein, and it is present throughout the evolution. More than 280 sequences have been reported in the protein sequence database (www.uniprot.org). Though sequentially diverse, cyt-c has essentially retained its tertiary structure or fold. Thus a vast data set of varied sequences with retention of similar structure and fun...
متن کاملComparison of the Lipophosphoglycan 3 Gene of the Lizard and Mammalian Leishmania: A Homology Modeling
Background: Lipophosphoglycan 3 (LPG3) is required for the LPG assembly, a well known virulent molecule. In this study, the LPG3 gene of the lizard and mammalian Leishmania species were cloned and sequenced. A three-dimensional structure (3D) for the target sequence was also predicted by comparative (homology) modeling. Materials and Methods: An optimization PCR amplification was performed o...
