The session explores computational approaches to understanding the fundamental cycle of DNA $ Protein $ DNA by which DNA and proteins co-exist, co-regulate, and co-create each other. There is mounting evidence that DNA structural properties beyond the double helix signiicantly aaect its interactions with proteins and play an important role in a number of biological phenomena ranging from gene r...

Advances in modern biotechnology arc being increasingly applied to product development for improved hcalthcarc. agricultural outputs and environment. The biotechnology industry has become a multi-bi lli on dollar industry. The extensive usc of recombinant DNA (rONA ) technology in industry, oft en entail s release of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) into the environment. There is a global ...

STRING FROM substituted selenobenzamides (2) a series of 2- arylselenazoles (3-7) were prepared. The antibacterial activity of compounds 3-7 against a number of microorganisms were determined. Some of these compounds showed significant antibacterial activity

With the availability of large amounts of dna data, exact matching of nucleotide sequences has become an important application in modern computational biology and in meta-genomics. In the last decade several efficient solutions for the exact string matching problem have been developed and most of them are very fast in practical cases. However when the length of the pattern is short or the alpha...

A new method of genetic programming, named chemical genetic programming (CGP), which enables evolutionary optimization of the mapping from genotypic strings to phenotypic trees is proposed. A cell is evolved, and includes a DNA string that codes genetic information and smaller molecules for the mapping from DNA code to computational functionality. Genetic modification of a cell’s DNA allows the...

Through self-assembly, a large variety of nanomaterials have been fabricated, which are useful in many applied and research fields. However, broader development of nanoscience and nanotechnology requires more complex nanostructures whose fabrication requires precise control of morphology, structural parameters, and distributions of components within the nanomaterials, which remains a great chal...

String similarity search is required by many real-life applications, such as spell checking, data cleansing, fuzzy keyword search, or comparison of DNA sequences. Given a very large string set and a query string, the string similarity search problem is to efficiently find all strings in the string set that are similar to the query string. Similarity is defined using a similarity (or distance) m...

For a string A = a1 . . . an, a reversal ρ(i, j), 1 ≤ i < j ≤ n, transforms the string A into a string A′ = a1 . . . ai−1ajaj−1 . . . aiaj+1 . . . an, that is, the reversal ρ(i, j) reverses the order of symbols in the substring ai . . . aj of A. In a case of signed strings, where each symbol is given a sign + or −, the reversal operation also flips the sign of each symbol in the reversed substr...
