Using evolutionary and structural information to predict DNA-binding sites on DNA-binding proteins.
Proteins that interact with DNA are involved in a number of fundamental biological activities such as DNA replication, transcription, and repair. A reliable identification of DNA-binding sites in DNA-binding proteins is important for functional annotation, site-directed mutagenesis, and modeling protein-DNA interactions. We apply Support Vector Machine (SVM), a supervised pattern recognition me...
متن کاملDesigning and Development of a DNA Vaccine Based On Structural Proteins of Hepatitis C Virus
Background: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is one of the most prevalent infectious diseases responsible for high morbidity and mortality worldwide. Therefore, designing new and effective therapeutics is of great importance. The aim of the current study was to construct a DNA vaccine containing structural proteins of HCV and evaluation of its expression in a eukaryot...
متن کاملUsing structural motifs to identify proteins with DNA binding function
This work describes a method for predicting DNA binding function from structure using 3-dimensional templates. Proteins that bind DNA using small contiguous helix±turn±helix (HTH) motifs comprise a signi®cant number of all DNA-binding proteins. A structural template library of seven HTH motifs has been created from non-homologous DNA-binding proteins in the Protein Data Bank. The templates were...
متن کاملStructural requirements for DNA binding of GCM proteins.
Members of the GCM family of transcription factors contain a DNA binding domain unrelated to any other known DNA binding domain and bind to a DNA sequence motif not recognized by any other known transcription factor. Here we show that positions 2, 3, 6 and 7 of the 5'-ATGCGGGT-3' motif are particularly important for DNA binding and that methylation of several G residues on the upper strand, but...
متن کاملConformational and noncovalent complexation changes in proteins during electrospray ionization.
Electrospray ion sources efficiently produce gas-phase ions from proteins and their noncovalent complexes. Charge-state distributions of these ions are increasingly used to gauge their conformations in the solution phase. Here we investigate how this correlation is affected by the spraying conditions at the early stage of droplet generation, prior to the ionization process. We followed the fold...
