Analysis and Prediction of the Typhoon from an Informatics Perspective
Analysis and prediction of the typhoon has been intensively studied by a number of meteorologists because of the huge impact of the typhoon to the society. We study the same issue from a different viewpoint — from an informatics perspective. Our goal is to discover relevant knowledge for typhoon analysis and prediction by means of various computational tools that have been developed in the info...
متن کاملLipidomic analysis enables prediction of clinical outcomes in burn patients
Recent discoveries have highlighted the novel metabolic functions of adipose tissue in enhancing hypermetabolism after trauma. As the exact function and expression profiles of serum lipids and free fatty acids (FFA) are essentially unknown, we determined the lipidomic expression profile after burn in correlation to clinical outcomes to identify important lipid mediators affecting post-burn outc...
متن کاملGlycosyltransferase Activity in Developing Sea-urchin Embryos
The developmental course of activity changes of 4 endogenous membrane glycosyltransferases : UDP-glucose : glycosyltransferase, UDP-galactose : glycosyltransferase, GDP-mannose: glycosyltransferase, and UD-PiV-acetylglucosamine : glycosyltransferase was determined in various stages of developing sea-urchin embryos from unfertilized eggs up to the 16-cell stage. The results show that there is a ...
متن کاملCloning, purification and characterization of a functional anthracycline glycosyltransferase.
We have cloned the gene that encodes a novel glucosyl transferase (AraGT) involved in rhamnosylation of the polyketide antibiotic Aranciamycin in Streptomyces echinatus. AraGT comprises two domains characteristic of bacterial glycosyltranferases. AraGT was synthesized in E. coli as a decahistidinyl-tagged polypeptide. Purified AraGT is dimeric, displays a T(mapp) of 30 degrees C and can glycosy...
متن کاملPrediction of Glycan Structures from Glycosyltransferase Expression Profiles
Glycans, which attach to some lipids and Asn/Ser/Thr residues of proteins, draw attentions as the third biological macromolecule next to DNA and protein, since glycans play key roles in the embryogenesis, immunity and diseases. Glycans consist of carbohydrate sugars and their derivatives such as glucose (Glc), mannose (Man), N-acetyl-glucosamine (GlcNAc) and N-acetyl neuraminic acid (Neu5Ac), a...
