In present study a proline rich protein has been identified in lentil EST database using (soyabean) glycine max proline rich protein sequence as query sequence known to be down regulated in response to salinity and drought stress. Sequence similarity search has shown 90 % similarity with chickpea EST sequence Accesion no. GR 398344 and 85% similarity with Lens culinaris EST sequence Accession n...

Recent advancement in the pattern recognition field stimulates enormous interest in Protein Fold Recognition (PFR). PFR is considered as a crucial step towards protein structure prediction and drug design. Despite all the recent achievements, the PFR still remains as an unsolved issue in biological science and its prediction accuracy still remains unsatisfactory. Furthermore, the impact of usin...

Objective(s): Production of a recombinant and immunogenic antigen using dengue virus type-3 envelope protein is a key point in dengue vaccine development and diagnostic researches. The goals of this study were providing a recombinant protein from dengue virus type-3 envelope protein and evaluation of its immunogenicity in mice. Materials and Methods: Multiple amino acid sequences of different i...

background: because of the strong immunologic responses of surface protein tasp in theileria annu­lata infected host, we tried to characterize this protein in a t. annulata isolate from iran. methods: the rna prepared from t. annulata infected cells was used to produce smart-ds-cdna. the double strand cdna was then amplified with primers derived from tasp mrna se­quences. the pcr product was cl...

In protein sequences, often two sequences that share similar substrings have similar functional properties. Learning of the characteristics and properties of an unknown protein is much easier if its likely functional properties can be predicted by finding the substrings already known from other protein sequences. The sequence pattern search algorithm proposed in this paper searches for similar ...

recombinant protein production in e. coli has several advantages over other expression systems. misfolding, inclusion body formation, and lack of eukaryotic post translational modification are the most disadvantages of this system. exporting of correctly folded proteins to the outside of reductive cytoplasmic environment through twin-arginine system could help to pass these limiting steps. two ...

the main purpose of this paper is to introduce afast method for gene prediction in dna sequences based on the period-3 property in exons. first, the symbolic dna sequences are converted to digital signal using the eiip method. then, to reduce the effect of background noise in the period-3 spectrum, we use the discrete wavelet transform (dwt) at three levels and apply it on the input digital sig...
