Genomic Enzymology: Web Tools for Leveraging Protein Family Sequence–Function Space and Genome Context to Discover Novel Functions
The exponentially increasing number of protein and nucleic acid sequences provides opportunities to discover novel enzymes, metabolic pathways, and metabolites/natural products, thereby adding to our knowledge of biochemistry and biology. The challenge has evolved from generating sequence information to mining the databases to integrating and leveraging the available information, i.e., the avai...
متن کاملProteInOn: A Web Tool for Protein Semantic Similarity
Bioinformatics arose from the need to manage and extract knowledge from the vast amount of sequence data generated by automated Molecular Biology techniques. One important step for this was the development of the Gene Ontology (GO), which provided a unified and structured vocabulary to describe proteins, and also a background to compare them, contributing to the integration of knowledge from th...
متن کاملStructAnalyzer - a tool for sequence versus structure similarity analysis.
In the world of RNAs and proteins, similarities at the level of primary structures of two comparable molecules usually correspond to structural similarities at the tertiary level. In other words, measures of sequence and structure similarities are in general correlated - a high value of sequence similarity imposes a high value of structural similarity. However, important exceptions that stay in...
متن کاملHarry: A Tool for Measuring String Similarity
Comparing strings and assessing their similarity is a basic operation in many application domains of machine learning, such as in information retrieval, natural language processing and bioinformatics. The practitioner can choose from a large variety of available similarity measures for this task, each emphasizing different aspects of the string data. In this article, we present Harry, a small t...
متن کاملPrediction of Enzyme Classification from Protein Sequence without the Use of Sequence Similarity
We describe a novel approach for predicting the function of a protein from its amino-acid sequence. Given features that can be computed from the amino-acid sequence in a straightforward fashion (such as pI, molecular weight, and amino-acid composition), the technique allows us to answer questions such as: Is the protein an enzyme? If so, in which Enzyme Commission (EC) class does it belong? Our...
