Domain characteristics

Adaptor Proteins. Figure 1 Adaptor protein domains. A scheme of the domain structures of some well-characterized adaptor proteins is shown. Descriptions of domain characteristics are in main text except C2, binds to phospholipids GTPase activating protein (GAP) domain, inactivates small GTPases such as Ras Hect domain, enzymatic domain of ubiquitin ligases and GUK domain, guanylate kinase domain. For clarity, not all domains contained within these proteins are shown.

Recombinant DNA technology has also facilitated detailed study of cytokine receptors. Based upon amino acid sequence homology, receptors are usually classified as belonging to one of six known superfamilies (Table 8.3). Individual members of any one superfamily characteristically display 20-50 per cent homology. Conserved amino acids normally occur in discrete bands or clusters, which usually correspond to a discrete domain in the receptor. Most receptors exhibit multiple domains. In some cases a single receptor may contain domains characteristic of two or more superfamilies. For example, the IL-6 receptor contains domains characteristic of both the haematopoietic and immunoglobulin superfamilies, making it a member of both. 

The collage of electron micrographs shown in Figure 19 Illustrates a probable transition from a nucleation and growth phase separation mechanism to a spinodal decomposition. The 7% PS sample shows more or less spherical PS domains, characteristics of nucleation and growth. However, a few domains appear to have some elliptical characteristics. When the PS content increases up to midrange, the shape of the PS domains becomes more obviously elliptical, suggestive of cross-sections of cylinders or other worm-like structures. As the PS content increases further, the...

Figure 4. Linear representation of the Arabidopsis PIPKs and PLCs. The Arabidopsis PtdlnsP 5-kinases are most similar to the human type I PtdlnsP 5-kinases. There are 11 putative type I /I/PtdlnsP 5-kinases in Arabidopsis arranged in two subfamilies based on size. Subfamily B contains X/PIPK1-9, all of which contain membrane occupation and recognition nexus (MORN) repeats. /1/PIPK10-11 are in Subfamily A with molecular weights less than that of the members of subfamily B and contain no MORN repeats. The Arabidopsis phosphoinositide specific phospholipase C family is most similar to the animal PLC . There are seven functional PI-PLCs in Arabidopisis (Hunt et al., 2004). All isoforms contain EF-hand motifs, the X and Y catalytic domains characteristic of PI-PLCs and a C2 lipid-binding domain.

Figure 3. Hierarchical domain clustering of MASC proteins. Interpro domains in MASC proteins occurring more than once in the MASC dataset were clustered. Discrete clusters (grey boxes) were annotated with the protein class of which the majority proteins belonged to. Clusters are formed from co-occurrence of two or more domains characteristic of a protein class...

Figure 9a shows a typical load-loadline displacement curve of a nylon compact tensiiin specimen. The slight deviation from linear elastic behaviour prior to fracture relates to the presence of a plastic deformation zone confined near the pre-crack tip (Fig. 9b). This stable crack propagation domain is adjoining a wide hackle zone (rapid crack growth domain) characteristic of a brittle fracture.

Formerly DUPDl, but does not contain an N-terminal cyclophilin domain, as originally annotated. The mouse ortholog also lacks cyclophilin domain. Thus, the name DUPDl is a misnomer hjumpy lacks any of the typical domains characteristic of the myotubularin family, but it does contain the myotubularin-specif WDR motif within the P loop and does have phosphatidylinositol-... 

The second case corresponds to sudden switch-off of an ordering external electric or magnetic field in an orientationally ordered phase, or a field-cooled sample. We have studied domain characteristics as a function of impurity concentration p, coupling strength between impurities and directors w, and sample history. 

For example, in polyethylene, the transverse relaxation time of the crystalline domains, characteristically of order of 10 (xs, can be sufficiently shorter than that of such that after an excitation placing the total... 

Dopamine receptors were originally subdivided into two types (D, and Dj). Currently there are live cloned dopamine receptors that fall into these two classes, llte D -like receptors include D, and D,. while the D -like receptors include D,. Dj and D, The dopamine recepiors all display the seven transmembrane-spanning domains characteristic of G-protein-linked receptors and are linked to adenylyi cycla.se stimulation (Dj) or inhibition (D,). 

The time domain characteristics of a filter are fully captured by the response h[n] to a unit impulse 6[ ].
