ProMult: Prediction of the Exon–Intron Structure by Spliced Alignment with Several Proteins
نویسندگان
چکیده
All existing similarity-based gene recognition algorithms can use only one protein as a template. The proposed enhancement of the ProFrame algorithm allows one to use structural information about several related proteins in multiple alignment. The new algorithm, named ProMult, was tested on a sample of human genes and demonstrated improved reliability of predictions.

Improving spliced alignment for identification of ortholog groups and multiple CDS alignment
The Spliced Alignment Problem (SAP) that consists in finding an optimal semi-global alignment of a spliced RNA sequence on an unspliced genomic sequence has been largely considered for the prediction and the annotation of gene structures in genomes. Here, we re-visit it for the purpose of identifying CDS ortholog groups within a set of CDS from homologous genes and for computing multiple CDS al...
متن کاملBacterial Expression and Functional Characterization of A Naturally Occurring Exon6-less Preprochymosin cDNA
Chymosin (Rennin EC 3.4.23.4), an aspartyl proteinase, is the major proteolytic enzyme in the fourthstomach of the unweaned calf, and it is formed by proteolytic activation of its zymogene, prochymosin.Following the cloning of synthesized cDNAs on mRNA pools extracted from the mucosa of the calf fourthstomach, we have identified an alternatively spliced form of preprochymosin ...
متن کاملO-36: Evaluation of Genetic Variations in Intron 4 and Exon 5 of RABL2B Gene in Infertile Men with Oligoasthenoteratospermia and Immotile Short Tail Sperm Defects
Background One of the main causes of male infertility is defect in structure and function of sperm cells. Infertile men with oligoasthenoteratospermia (OAT) defect, have sperms with abnormalities in count, motility and morphology. Patients with immotile short tail sperm (ISTS) disorder have immotile short-tailed sperm with disorganized axonem, and a significant decrease in sperm counts. Numerou...
متن کاملGene structure prediction by spliced alignment of genomic DNA with protein sequences: increased accuracy by differential splice site scoring.
Gene identification in genomic DNA from eukaryotes is complicated by the vast combinatorial possibilities of potential exon assemblies. If the gene encodes a protein that is closely related to known proteins, gene identification is aided by matching similarity of potential translation products to those target proteins. The genomic DNA and protein sequences can be aligned directly by scoring the...
متن کاملGenotyping of Intron 22 and Intron 1 Inversions of Factor VIII Gene Using an Inverse-Shifting PCR Method in an Iranian Family with Severe Haemophilia A
Abstract Background: Haemophilia A (HA) is an X-linked bleeding disorder caused by the absence or reduced activity of coagulation factor VIII (FVIII). Coagulation factors are a group of related proteins that are essential for the formation of blood clots. The aim of this study was to genotype the coagulation factor VIII gene mutations using Inverse Shifting PCR (IS-PCR) in an Iranian family ...
