Identification of amino acid sequences via X-ray crystallography: a mini review of case studies
نویسندگان
چکیده
The sequencing of a protein is a complicated issue. Several methods have been developed in order to establish the amino acid sequences of proteins, including Edman degradation, LC/MS/MS and cDNA sequencing. A number of examples confirm that X-ray crystallography could also be a useful tool for the identification of an amino acid sequence of unknown proteins. Here, we present a short review summarizing the application of crystallography for protein sequence determination and identification.

The X-ray Transform and its Application in Nano Crystallography
In this article a review on the definition of the X- ray transform and some ofits applications in Nano crystallography is presented. We shall show that the X- raytransform is a special case of the Radon transform on homogeneous spaces when thetopological group E(n)- the Euclidean group - acts on ℝ2 transitively. First someproperties of the Radon transform are investigated then the relationship ...
متن کاملIdentification, cloning and sequence determination of the genes specifying hexokinase A and B from yeast.
The hexokinase A (HKA) and hexokinase B (HKB) genes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae have been cloned from a library of yeast genomic DNA. Using an in vitro glucose phosphorylation assay, the HKB gene was located on a plasmid carrying a 13.6 kb fragment of yeast DNA. After subcloning the relevant restriction fragments, the nucleotide sequence of the HKB gene was determined. Using this information, w...
