Proteomics
Studies from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute add new findings in the area of proteomics
December 24th, 2006
Scientists discuss in "Bioinformatics-driven, rational engineering of protein thermostability" new findings in proteomics. According to a study from the United States, "A longstanding goal in protein engineering is to identify specific sequence changes that endow proteins with desired functional properties. As opposed to traditional rational and random protein engineering techniques, we have employed a bioinformatic approach to identify specific sequence changes that influence key functional properties of a protein within a defined superfamily." "Specifically, we have used the Bayesian sequence-based algorithms PROBE and Classifier to identify a strand-turn-strand motif...
