A protein secondary structure prediction scheme for the IBM PC and compatibles

نویسنده

  • Stavros J. Hamodrakas
چکیده

A prediction scheme has been developed for the IBM PC and compatibles containing computer programs which make use of the protein secondary structure prediction algorithms of Nagano (1977a,b), Garnier et al. (1978), Burgess et al. (1974), Chou and Fasman (1974a,b), Lim (1974) and Dufton and Hider (1977). The results of the individual prediction methods are combined as described by Hamodrakas et al. (1982) by the program PLOTPROG to produce joint prediction histograms for a protein, for three types of secondary structure: alpha-helix, beta-sheet and beta-turns. The scheme requires uniform input for the prediction programs, produced by any word processor, spreadsheet, editor or database program and produces uniform output on a printer, a graphics screen or a file. The scheme is independent of any additional software and runs under DOS 2.0 or later releases.

Is beta-pleated sheet the molecular conformation which dictates formation of helicoidal cuticle?

Over 100 sequences for cuticular proteins are now available, but there have been no formal analyses of how these sequences might contribute to the helicoidal architecture of cuticle or to the interaction of these proteins with chitin. A secondary structure prediction scheme (Hamodrakas, S.J., 1988. A protein secondary structure prediction scheme for the IBM PC and compatibles. CABIOS 4, 473-477...

Protein Secondary Structure Prediction: a Literature Review with Focus on Machine Learning Approaches

DNA sequence, containing all genetic traits is not a functional entity. Instead, it transfers to protein sequences by transcription and translation processes. This protein sequence takes on a 3D structure later, which is a functional unit and can manage biological interactions using the information encoded in DNA. Every life process one can figure is undertaken by proteins with specific functio...

A vector-based method for drawing RNA secondary structure

MOTIVATION To produce a polygonal display of RNA secondary structure with minimal overlap and distortion of structural elements, with minimal search for positioning them, and with minimal user intervention. RESULTS A new algorithm for automatically drawing RNA secondary structure has been developed. The algorithm represents the direction and space for a structural element using vector and vec...

Prediction of Secondary Structure of Citrus Viroids Reported from Southern Iran

Abstract Viroids are smallest, single-stranded, circular, highly structured plant pathogenic RNAs that do not code for any protein. Viroids belong to two families, the Avsunviroidae and the Pospiviroidae. Members of the Pospiviroidae family adopt a rod-like secondary structure. In this study the most stable secondary structures of citrus viroid variants that reported from Fars province wer...
