objective(s): the periodic binding of protein expressed by mycobacterium tuberculosis h37rv with the host cell receptor molecules i.e. fibronectin (fn) is gaining significance because of its adhesive properties.  the genome sequencing of m. tuberculosis h37rv revealed that the proline-glutamic (pe) proteins contain polymorphic gc-rich repetitive sequences (pgrs) which have clinical importance i...

Tandem mass spectrometry is a powerful tool for studying proteins. However, an open problem for proteomics research is how to accurately identify proteins from the experimental mass spectra. De novo sequencing based protein identification is the only feasible approach for finding new proteins and studying protein post-translational modifications. In this paper, we describe our novel hybrid de n...

objective: leishmaniasis is caused by parasitic protozoa of the genus leishmania which in the infected host is obligate intracellular parasite. lack gene is conserved among related leishmania species. lack is the immuno-dominant antigen of l.major which is considered as the most promising molecule for a recombinant or dna vaccine against leishmaniasis. materials and methods: in this study the ...

infectious bursal disease virus (ibdv) is the causative agent of gumboro disease, an infectious disease of global economic importance in poultry. structural protein vp2 of ibdv is the most frequently studied protein due to its significant roles in virus attachment, protective immunity, and serotype specificity. the objective of the present study was to improve the expression of hypervariable re...

Background The X-linked cyclin-dependent kinase like 5 (CDKL5/STK9) gene has been shown to be responsible for a severe encephalopathy condition characterized by early onset of epilepsy and severe developmental delay. CDKL5 mutations have been shown to be more frequent among female patients. Results Here we report a 6- month male patient, second child of a healthy non consanguineous in the Irani...

The bioinformatics discipline seeks to solve problems in biology with computational theories and methods. Formal concept analysis (FCA) is one such theoretical model, based on partial orders. FCA allows the user examine structural properties of data which subsets dataset depend each other. This article surveys current literature related use for bioinformatics. survey begins a discussion FCA, it...
