Design of multi-stable nucleid acid sequences

چکیده
RNA molecules that can fold into two or more predefined alternative metastable structures can be designed rationally. We outline an algorithm for this task that reduces the problem to vertex coloring the union of all prescribed outerplanar secondary structure graphs. Starting from an ear decomposition of this composite graph colorings are produced by a dynamic programming procedure. Sequences can then be optimized for particular properties by means of standard optimization heuristics.

Structural Characteristics of Stable Folding Intermediates of Yeast Iso-1-Cytochrome-c
Cytochrome-c (cyt-c) is an electron transport protein, and it is present throughout the evolution. More than 280 sequences have been reported in the protein sequence database (www.uniprot.org). Though sequentially diverse, cyt-c has essentially retained its tertiary structure or fold. Thus a vast data set of varied sequences with retention of similar structure and fun...
متن کاملComputational Approach for Rational Design of Fusion Uricase with PAS Sequences
Tumor lysis syndrome is a life-threatening condition for humans due to the lack of urate oxidase. In this study, several variants of PASylateduricasefrom the Aspergillus flavus species were analyzed computationally to find the appropriate fusions to solve short half-life and stability concerns. The Ab initio method was performed using Rosetta software to structurally characterize the PAS sequen...
متن کاملDesigning Of Degenerate Primers-Based Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) For Amplification Of WD40 Repeat-Containing Proteins Using Local Allignment Search Method
Degenerate primers-based polymerase chain reaction (PCR) are commonly used for isolation of unidentified gene sequences in related organisms. For designing the degenerate primers, we propose the use of local alignment search method for searching the conserved regions long enough to design an acceptable primer pair. To test this method, a WD40 repeat-containing domain protein from Beauveria bass...
متن کاملLinkage factors optimization of Multi-outputs of compliant mechanism using Response Surface
This paper presents a linkage factors synthesis and multi-level optimization technique for bi-stable compliant mechanism. The linkage synthesis problem is modeled as multiple level factors and responses optimization problem with constraints. The bi-stable compliant mechanism is modeled as a crank slider mechanism using pseudo-rigid-body model (PRBM). The model exerts the large deflection of fle...
متن کاملThe Design of the Best Heat Integrated Separation Systems Using Harmony Search Algorithm
The synthesis of heat integrated multi-component distillation systems is complex due to its huge search space for structural combination and optimization computation. To provide a systematic approach and tools for the synthesis design of distillation systems, a new method for modeling heat integrated columns is presented, and the operating cost objective function is minimized by improved harmon...
