Variations of the C2H2 zinc finger motif in the yeast genome and classification of yeast zinc finger proteins.
The PROSITE pattern Zinc_Finger_C2H2 was extended to permit the detection of all C2H2 zinc fingers and their parent proteins in the recently completed sequence of the yeast genome. Additionally, a new computer program was written that extracts other zinc binding motifs (non C2H2 'fingers'), overlapping with the classical zinc finger pattern, from the found set of yeast C2H2 fingers. The complet...
متن کاملSysZNF: the C2H2 zinc finger gene database
C2H2 zinc finger (C2H2-ZNF) genes are one of the largest and most complex gene super-families in metazoan genomes, with hundreds of members in the human and mouse genome. The ongoing investigation of this huge gene family requires computational support to catalog genotype phenotype comparisons of C2H2-ZNF genes between related species and finally to extend the worldwide knowledge on the evoluti...
متن کاملClassification of C2H2 Zinc Finger Domains Using Support Vector Machines
Zinc finger proteins include nuclear receptors for steroid hormones and are mainly DNA-binding transcription factors. Thus those are supposed to be target proteins for drug discovery. C2H2 zinc finger gene family is one of the most popular and complex superfamilies. C2H2 zinc finger domains are composed of approximately 25 to 30 amino acid residues including the paired cysteines and histidines ...
متن کاملZinc Finger Database (ZiFDB) v2.0: a comprehensive database of C2H2 zinc fingers and engineered zinc finger arrays
ZiFDB (Zinc Finger Database, http://zifdb.msi.umn.edu) is a web-accessible database that houses information on individual C(2)H(2) zinc fingers (ZFs) and engineered zinc finger arrays (ZFAs). ZiFDB serves as a resource for biologists interested in engineering ZFAs for use as sequence-specific DNA-binding reagents. Here, we describe four new features of ZiFDB: (i) the database allows users to in...
متن کاملGenome-Wide Identification and Classification of Soybean C2H2 Zinc Finger Proteins and Their Expression Analysis in Legume-Rhizobium Symbiosis
Root nodule symbiosis (RNS) is one of the most productive and economical systems for nitrogen fixation, and previous studies have shown that several nodule-specific C2H2-zinc finger proteins (ZFPs) play important roles in symbiosis establishment and nodule function. However, C2H2-ZFPs are the most widespread ZFPs in eukaryotes, and a great variation of structure and function exist among the fam...
