Protein is a kind of very complex nitrogen-containing macromolecular compound, and its basic component is amino acid. 1. the basic unit of protein amino acids There are 20 kinds of amino acids that make up proteins, 19 of which can be represented by a general formula. The other is pro...

Several databases of protein structural families now exist-organised according to both evolutionary relationships and common folding arrangements. Although these lag behind sequence databases in size, the prospect of structural genomics initiatives means that they may soon include representatives of many of ...
6.2 Functional structure of a gene The vast majority of living organisms encode their genes in long strands of DN A. DNA(deoxyribonucleic acid) consists of a chain made from four types of nucleotide subunits[2],each composed of: a five-carbon sugar[3] (2'-deoxyribose[4), a phosphate(3]...
Describe the structure and function of G-proteins. What are the functions of proteins? How does this relate to their structure? Explain the complex structure of proteins. What are the main functions of proteins. Briefly describe each function and give an example of a protein that ...
In fact, each gene in cellular DNA contains the code for a unique protein structure. Not only are these proteins assembled with different amino acid sequences, but they also are held together by different bonds and folded into a variety of three-dimensional structures. The folded shape, or co...

The method extracts features from the protein such as 3D fold, sequence, motif, and functional linkages and relates them to function via the ProKnow knowledgebase of features, which links features to annotated functions via annotation profiles. Bayes’ theorem is used to compute weights of the ...
