Protein synthesisRibosomes are key components of protein synthesis in cells. The common property of all proteins is that they consist of long chains ofα-amino (alpha amino) acids. The α-amino acids are so called because the α-carbonatomin themoleculecarries an amino group (―NH2); the ...
Protein is digested to amino acids in the gastrointestinal tract. These are absorbed and distributed among the different tissues, where they form a series of amino acid pools that are kept equilibrated with each other through the medium of the circulating blood. The needs for protein synthesis of...
Tryptophan, an amino acid that is nutritionally important and occurs in small amounts in proteins. It is an essential amino acid, meaning that humans and certain other animals cannot synthesize it and must obtain it from their diets. Infants require grea
E7 (43-62) is an E7 derived peptide with anti-tumor effects. It is a straight chain peptide composed of 20 amino acids, spanning 43 to 62 amino acid residues in the E7 protein. The sequence contains a relatively large number of thiol groups, and the stability of the peptide is average...
In addition to its great diversity, every protein is also an intricate system itself. The structure of a protein is composed of a chain of amino acids in a three-dimensional arrangement, divided into four organizational levels (Nelson and Cox, 2012). Below, Fig. 1 depicts each of the diffe...
Here the sequence of mRNA bases is translated into a sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide chain.(4 protein)这里,mRNA的碱基序列被翻译成肽链里氨基酸的序列。Transfer RNA(tRNA) molecules pick up specific amino acid molecule from the cytoplasm according to their anti-codon triplet ...
The incorporation of amino acids in the exact sequence requires the correct binding of specific tRNAs to the mRNA guide by codon–anticodon pairing. The mRNA is translated in the 5′→3′ direction and the polypeptide chain is assembled from the N- to the C-terminus....
Among them, one of the excellent works is a SVM-based method developed by Shen et al [11]. In the study, the 20 amino acids were clustered into seven classes according to their dipoles and volumes of the side chains, and then the conjoint triad method abstracts the features of protein ...
SET and MYND domain-containing protein 4 (SMYD4) is composed of 804 amino acids, and the gene is located on chromosome 17p13. SMYD4 possesses a SET domain and a zinc finger motif (Fig.2). The tumor suppressor function of SMYD4 has been documented in relation to breast cancer developm...
