Sequence Identifiers

This process could be continued and possible sequences identified for further consideration. Some possible sequences would he eliminated, narrowing down the number suggested by Table 5.1. 

The following thermal rearrangement involves two pericyclic reactions in sequence. Identify them, and propose a mechanism to account for the observed result. 

In a sequential-modular program the executive program sets up the flow-sheet sequence, identifies the recycle loops, and controls the unit operation calculations interacting with the unit operations library, physical property data bank and the other sub-routines. It will also contain procedures for the optimum ordering the calculations and routines to promote... 

The major surface coat component of Toxocara larvae runs as a set of four closely migrating bands with apparent mobility of 120 kDa on SDS-PAGE. One of these was cloned and sequenced, identified as a serine-rich mucin and designated MUC-1 (Gems and Maizels, 1996). We have now established that there are at least five distinct mucin genes in this parasite, which bear general similarity but important distinctions. Thus, MUC-2, MUC-3, MUC-4 and MUC-5 are all threonine-rich rather than serine-rich, and all five differ in the repeat motifs within the mucin domains. All have similar non-mucin, cysteine-rich domains originally termed NC6 (nematode six-cysteine) domains, and since renamed SXC (six-cysteine), as described below. All mucins have a pair of SXC domains at their C-terminus, while MUC-3 and MUC-5 also have paired N-terminal SXC domains.

The secondary identifier is the "PROTEIN ID," which stands for the Protein Sequence Identifier. In nucleotide sequence entries, it is a string stored, in a qualifier called protein id, which is tagged to every CDS in the nucleotide database. Example ... 

Fio. 16. Schematic representation of the GERVAIS pulse sequence, identifying all pulse and delay timings. The pulse sequence shown is that for acquisition of successive velocity images. The magnitude and orientation of the g-gradient are changed as determined by the velocity or acceleration vector that is to be measured. 

Footprinting, a technique derived from principles used in DNA sequencing, identifies the DNA sequences bound by a particular protein. Researchers isolate a DNA fragment thought to contain sequences recognized by a DNA-binding protein and radiolabel... 

If the MS is incorporated as part of the mn, the autosampler will also trigger the mass spectrometer to mn and collect MS data. The mn module, however, does not set up the mass spectrometer conditions, which are determined using the MS software. Thus, the mn time used in both the ARC and MS must be consistent in order for the acquisition to be compatible. Prior to initiating a mn, the sequence identifier of the MS mn is entered into the ARC data system to initiate the correct sequences simultaneously in the MS and ARC systems. 

Interestingly, all four splice variants stem from intron 2, which corresponds to the carboxyl terminus of the 5-HT7 receptor. No splice variants have been reported to arise from the first intron, which is in the putative i2 loop of the receptor. The first clue that functional splice variants existed came from the observation that the sequence identified by Lovenberg et al. was truncated by 13 amino acids when compared with other cloned sequences and that the truncation occurred at the second intron (375-377). Subsequently, the four splice variants were identified by several groups (388,400,407,408). 

Figure 13.11. Conserved ARE (EpRE) enhancer sequences identified in various phase II genes. The negative numbers shown on the 5 and 3 positions of each sequence are nucleotide positions from a transcription initiation site of each gene.

Figure 13.13. ARE activation by Nrf2. Nrf2 associates with Keapl, a repressor protein of Nrf2, in the cytoplasm. Upon xenobiotic exposure to cells, upstream kinase pathways are activated and induce dissociation of Nrf2 from Keapl. The hberated Nrf2 translocates into nucleus and dimerize with a small Maf protein and bind to an ARE enhancer sequence identified in various phase II genes.

Over the past 10 years, there has been a rapid development of various mass spectrometry techniques in order to sequence, identify, and characterize proteins and peptides. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) has become the most preferably used technique for a fast processing of biological samples.
