RSITE: a computer program to predict the recognition sequence of a restriction enzyme
نویسندگان
چکیده
A computer program (RSITE) was developed which predicts the recognition sequence of a restriction endonuclease. The sizes of fragments experimentally determined on cleavage of a DNA of known sequence were input. Possible recognition sequences producing fragments of sizes matching those determined empirically were printed out. The program faithfully predicted the specificity of restriction enzymes of known recognition sequence and also determined the recognition sequence of a new restriction enzyme from Haemophilus influenzae GU (HinGU II).

Seismic Data Forecasting: A Sequence Prediction or a Sequence Recognition Task
In this paper, we have tried to predict earthquake events in a cluster of seismic data on pacific ring of fire, using multivariate adaptive regression splines (MARS). The model is employed as either a predictor for a sequence prediction task, or a binary classifier for a sequence recognition problem, which could alternatively help to predict an event. Here, we explain that sequence prediction/r...
متن کاملRestriction Enzyme Recognition Sequence
A critical and difficult part of characterizing restriction enzymes and methylases is the identification of recognition sequences. To simplify this process, we have developed a plasmid transformation method along with a computer program named RM search that determines the exact recognition sequences for given restriction and modifica-
متن کاملThe modified recombinant proinsulin: a simple and efficient route to produce insulin glargine in E. coli
Background: Recombinant insulin glargine, a long-acting analogue of insulin, is expressed as proinsulin in host cell and after purification and refolding steps cleaved to active insulin by enzymatic digestion using trypsin and carboxypeptidase B. Since the proinsulin's B and C chains have several internal arginine and lysine residues, a number of impurities are generated following treatment wit...
متن کاملA computer assisted method for the determination of restriction enzyme recognifion sites.
A computer program has been developed which aids in the determination of restriction enzyme recognition sequences. This is achieved by cleaving DNAs of known sequence with a restriction endonuclease and comparing the fragmentation pattern with a computer-generated set of patterns. The feasibility of this approach has been tested using fragmentation patterns of 0X174 DNA produced by enzymes of b...
متن کاملModeling of Partial Digest Problem as a Network flows problem
Restriction Site Mapping is one of the interesting tasks in Computational Biology. A DNA strand can be thought of as a string on the letters A, T, C, and G. When a particular restriction enzyme is added to a DNA solution, the DNA is cut at particular restriction sites. The goal of the restriction site mapping is to determine the location of every site for a given enzyme. In partial digest metho...
