This paper discusses the implementation of a three-dimensional (3D) structure motif search of proteins. Each protein structure is represented by a set of secondary structure elements (SSEs) which involves alpha-helix segments and beta-strand segments. In describing it, every SSE is further reduced into a two-node graph that consists of the starting amino acid residue, the ending residue and a p...

Manufacturing produces real wealth for any country and constitutes the back bone for the service sector. The objective of any organization is to earn profit. Usually the market fixes the selling price of the manufactured components. Unless there is focus on the manufacturing strategy of reducing manufacturing cost, it is very difficult to sustain in this ever competitive world. A suitable manuf...

Most software tools in homology recognition on proteins answer only a few specific questions, often leaving not much room for the interpretation of the results. We develop a software Passta that helps to decide whether a protein sequence is related to a protein with known structure. Our approach may indicate rearrangements and duplications, and it displays information from different sources in ...

This paper describes an approach to automated identi cation of three-dimensional (3D) common structural features of proteins. The structure of a protein was represented by a set of secondary structure elements (SSEs) in the same manner used in our previous work, where only -helices and -strands were considered. The maximal common subgraph matching algorithm, based on a graph theoretical clique ...

This paper proposes a new method EMPSC for the well-known PSC (Protein Structure Comparison) problem. The proposed method EMPSC is a protein structural alignment algorithm based on ellipsoidal model abstraction. We segment the protein 3D structure into two different kinds of structures, including Secondary Structure Elements recognized by DSSP and other coil/loop structures. These SSEs will be ...

background: noise induced hearing loss (nihl) is the highest reported occupational disease among industrial workers but there is scarcity of data on disease burden in malaysia. this study estimated the risks and burden of nihl in manufacturing industries in malaysia. methods: this cross-sectional industrial survey was conducted by interviewing osh practitioners at 26 industries categorized as f...

The spin Seebeck effect (SSE) refers to the generation of a current as result temperature gradient in magnetic material, which can be detected electrically via inverse Hall metallic contact. Since discovery SSE 2008, intensive studies on have been conducted elucidate its origin. SSEs appear wide range materials including ferro-, ferri-, and antiferro-magnets also paramagnets with classical or q...

scheduling has become an attractive area for artificial intelligence researchers. on other hand, in today's real-world manufacturing systems, the importance of an efficient maintenance schedule program cannot be ignored because it plays an important role in the success of manufacturing facilities. a maintenance program may be considered as the heath care of manufacturing machines and equip...
