Analysis of Conserved Hydrophobic Cores in Proteins and Supramolecular Complexes
نویسندگان
چکیده
The conserved hydrophobic core is an important feature of a family of protein domains. We suggest a procedure for finding and the analysis of conserved hydrophobic cores. The procedure is based on using an original program called CluD (http://monkey.belozersky.msu.ru/CluD/cgi-bin/hftri.pl). Conserved hydrophobic cores of several families including homeodomains and interlock-containing domains are described. Hydrophobic clusters on some protein-DNA and protein-protein interfaces were also analyzed.

Genetic Analysis of Three Structural Proteins in Iranian Infectious Bronchitis Virus Isolate
Infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) is a contagious pathogen in fowl that results in economic loss in the poultry industry. In this study, the amino acids sequences of three structural proteins M, N, and S1 for five Iranian IBV isolated during 1998-2011 have been analyzed. Conserved and variable regions, hydrophobic characteristics and identity matrix were determined after alignment by Bioedit ve...
متن کاملCloning and molecular characterization of TaERF6, a gene encoding a bread wheat ethylene response factor
Ethylene response factor proteins are important for regulating gene expression under different stresses. Different isoforms for ERF have previously isolated from bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and related genera and called from TaERF1 to TaERF5. We isolated, cloned and molecular characterized a novel one based on TdERF1, an isoform in durum wheat (Tri...

متن کاملStructural Interface Forms and Their Involvement in Stabilization of Multidomain Proteins or Protein Complexes
The presented analysis concerns the inter-domain and inter-protein interface in protein complexes. We propose extending the traditional understanding of the protein domain as a function of local compactness with an additional criterion which refers to the presence of a well-defined hydrophobic core. Interface areas in selected homodimers vary with respect to their contribution to share as well ...
متن کاملA leucine motif in the amino acid sequence of subunit 9 of the mitochondrial ATPase, and other hydrophobic membrane proteins, that is highly conserved by editing.
Subunit 9 of the mitochondrial ATPase, but also other hydrophobic mitochondrially encoded proteins, contains a high frequency of the leucine motif, -Leu-X9-Leu-, which is highly conserved through RNA editing. The leucine motif may provide specific recognition sites between membrane-spanning domains of the F0-ATPase and between other hydrophobic subunits during the assembly of multienzyme comple...
