• If the catalyst is a moderate base such as hydroxide ion or an alkoxide, the aldol reaction occurs via nucleophilic attack by the resonance-stabilized enolate on the carbonyl group of another molecule. (wikipedia.org)
  • Transition-metal-free synthesis of 4-pyrones via TfOH-promoted nucleophilic addition/cyclization of diynones and water has been developed. (preprints.org)
  • Advances in DNA sequencing and machine learning are providing insights into protein sequences and structures on an enormous scale 1 . (nature.com)
  • Protein sequences vary by more than ten orders of magnitude in thermodynamic folding stability 2 (the ratio of unfolded to folded molecules at equilibrium). (nature.com)
  • First, the pocket, conservation, structural and energy profiles, and physicochemical properties of (non)covalently bound cysteines were collected from both protein sequences and 3D structures of protein-ligand complexes. (uni-freiburg.de)
  • mRNA display is an entire in vitro selection method that takes advantage of cell-free translation systems for the generation of polypeptide sequences. (medscape.com)
  • or conjugate, complex, or fusion protein or fusion polypeptide including the same disclosed amino acid sequence derived from bacterium (e.g., mycoplasma, anaplasma, etc. (patentsencyclopedia.com)
  • Most AMPs are cationic polypeptides, usually smaller than 100 amino acids in length, with enormous sequence diversity. (biomedcentral.com)
  • The cDNA display proteolysis method is fast, accurate and uniquely scalable, and promises to reveal the quantitative rules for how amino acid sequences encode folding stability. (nature.com)
  • Compared to traditional ML models with only sequenced-based features or only 3D structural features, HyperCys is more accurate at predicting hyper-reactive druggable cysteines. (uni-freiburg.de)
  • Assaying one library (up to 900,000 sequences in our experiments) requires one week and reagents costing about US$2,000, excluding the cost of DNA synthesis and sequencing. (nature.com)
  • The latter approach involves a sequence of steps which is roughly approximated by Figure 1 : An unknown structure is isolated from some source. (nih.gov)
  • For totally or partially randomized peptide or protein libraries, the much higher diversity provides a big advantage for exploring the sequence space to a greater depth for the identification of target-binding partners. (medscape.com)
  • This method combines the strengths of cell-free molecular biology and next-generation sequencing and requires no on-site equipment larger than a quantitative PCR (qPCR) instrument. (nature.com)
