Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleLow-Homology Protein Structural Class Prediction from Secondary Structure Based on Visibility and Horizontal Visibility NetworkZhi-Qin Zhao, Liang Luo, Xiao-Yan LiuIn this study, based on the predicted secondary structures of proteins, we propose a new approach to predict protein structural classes (α,β,α/β,α+β) for three widely used low-homology data sets. Fist, we obtain two time siries from the chaos game representation of each predicted secondary structure; second, based on two time series, we construct visibility and horizontal visibility network, respectively and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 12 Mar 2018 · 9,668 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Polymorphisms at Heat Shock Protein 90 Gene by High Resolution Melting Assays for Potential Heat Tolerance among Nigerian Zebu Cattle BreedsGbolabo Onasanya, George Msalya, Aranganoor Thiruvenkadan et al.Heat Shock Protein (HSP) 90 gene is a member of HSPs sub-family that act as molecular chaperons whenever animals come under thermal stress. The genes fulfill essential roles of providing cellular protection, immune response, protein synthesis, protein folding and unfolding, protection from cellular stress, inhibitory apoptosis and adaptation. This study was designed to analyze polymorphisms of HSP 90 and to … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 7 Mar 2020 · 7,258 accessesView PDF Cite

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractIs Rerum® the New Coley's Vaccine?Marco RuggieroColey's Vaccine and Cancer Immunotherapy Dr. William B. Coley is credited for having been the first to translate the observation of an association between bacterial infections, high fever and cancer remission into a successful cancer treatment. However, it is worth noting that such an association dates back to at least one century before Coley's times; as Wiemann and Starnes from … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 31 May 2017 · 12,281 accessesView PDF Cite

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractCommentary-How do we Improve Training for Receptor Research?Marilee Ann BenoreThis issue of the American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology features articles about receptor-ligand interactions that are critical to the wellbeing of all living organisms. The importance of the field of receptor research is supported by the large number of articles published in journals, the numerous specialty journals, the international conferences and the percentage of legal drugs on the market … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 8 Dec 2015 · 8,056 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRaman Spectroscopy of Protein Crystal Nucleation and GrowthPechkova Eugenia, Maksimov, Georgy et al.Using Raman spectroscopy and the lysozyme as model system, we investigate the differences in protein conformation before and after Langmuir-Blodgett nanotemplate-induced crystal nucleation and growth. It was found, that the main difference in lysozyme conformation is associated to the higher amount of S-S bonds in lysozyme of LB crystals, probably in C-end of protein, resulting in the higher stiffness of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 8 Dec 2014 · 8,275 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproving Protein 3D Structure Prediction Accuracy using Dense Regions Areas of Secondary Structures in the Contact MapAmer F. Al-Badarneh, Mohammad A. Khalil, Mo'taz A. Al-HamiProblem Statement: The protein folding problem is a fundamental problem in structural molecular biology. This problem describes how a protein is transformed from its primary sequence (i.e., amino acid sequence) into the three dimensional structure (3D structure) for this sequence that determines the function of the protein. The 3D structure of a protein can be represented using a square symmetrical … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,533 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordModel Classification for Predicting the Post-Translational Modification (PTM) Glycosylation in Sequence O Using an Extreme Gradient Boosting AlgorithmDamayanti, Sutyarso et al.Post Translational Modification (PTM) is an important mechanism involved in regulating protein function. Post-translational modification refers to the addition of covalent and enzymatic modifications of proteins in protein biosynthesis, which has an important role in modifying protein function and regulating gene expression. One of the post-translational modifications is glycosylation. Glycosylation is the addition of a sugar group to a protein … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 20, Issue 7 · 29 Apr 2024 · 5,554 accessesView PDF Cite
