  1. Peptide sequence

    Peptide sequence or amino acid sequence is the order in which amino acid residues, connected by peptide bond s, lie in the chain in peptide s and protein s . The sequence is generally reported from the N terminal end containing free amino group to the C terminal end containing free carboxyl group . Peptide sequence is often called protein sequence if it represents the primary structure of a protein . Sequence notation and applications Many peptide sequences have been in sequence database s. These databases may use various notations to describe the peptide sequence. The full names of the amino acids are rarely given instead, Amino acid Table of standard amino acid abbreviations and properties 3 letter or 1 letter abbreviations are usually recorded for conciseness. Several deductions can be made from the sequence itself. Long stretches of hydrophobic residues may indicate transmembrane helix transmembrane helices . These helices may indicate the peptide is a cell receptor . Certain residues indicate a beta sheet area. If full length protein sequence is available, it is possible to estimate the isoelectric point of the protein. Methods for determining the peptide sequence include deduction from DNA sequence, Edman degradation , and mass spectrometry . Techniques in sequence analysis can be applied to learn more about the peptide. These techniques generally consist of comparing the sequence to other sequences from sequence databases. Other sequences may have already been studied and determined to be significant. Findings about these sequences may be applicable to the sequence under investigation.

  1. Peptide computing

    Orphan date April 2012 Peptide computing is a form of computing which uses peptide s and molecular biology , instead of traditional silicon based computer technologies. The basis of this computational model is the affinity of antibodies towards peptide sequences. Similar to DNA computing , the parallel interactions of peptide sequences and antibodies have been used by this model to solve a few NP complete problems. Specifically, the hamiltonian path problem HPP and some versions of the set cover problem are a few NP complete problems which have been solved using this computational model so far. This model of computation has also been shown to be Turing completeness computationally universal or Turing complete . This model of computation has some critical advantages over DNA computing . For instance, while DNA is made of four building blocks, peptide s are made of twenty building blocks. The peptide antibody interactions are also more flexible with respect to recognition and affinity than an interaction between a DNA strand and its reverse complement. However, unlike DNA computing, this model is yet to be practically realized. The main limitation is the availability of specific monoclonal antibodies required by the model.

  1. Peptide library

    A peptide library is a newly developed technique for protein related study. A peptide library contains a great number of peptides that have a systematic combination of amino acids . Usually, peptide library is synthesized on solid phase, mostly on resin , which can be made as flat surface or beads. The peptide library provides a powerful tool for drug design , protein protein interactions , and other biochemical as well as pharmaceutical applications. You can create a mix of desired amino acids at each point in a sequence. In this way, you could create a library of 20 different polypeptides with only one amino acid residue at random and the rest being the same. usefulness of this form of peptide synthesis is limited as you can t go beyond 70 peptides in length. This would give you 70 20 possible combinations and that s only if you don t include the plethora of available amino acids with pre installed post translational modifications. Most drug development does not involve such a random assortment of proteins as you wouldn t learn very much. Important example. Say you wanted a peptide chain 10 residues in length to use in native chemical ligation with a larger recombinantly expressed protein. Chosen out of complete randomness you want a set of proteins with the following. residue 1 Alanine only residue 2 glutamine, glycine, arginine, glutamic acid, serine, or methionine residue 3 any one of all 20 amino acids residue 4 acetyl lysine only residue 5 alanine residue 6 isoleucine residue 7 aspartic acid residue 8 phenylalanine residue 9 acetyl lysine residue 10 argineine with the carboxy terminal thioester. there would be 20 different proteins at residue 3. each one of those would .... this peptide library would be useful for analyzing the effect of the post translational modification ... formula, if you made a completely random peptide library with n amino acids for each link in the chain ...

  1. Peptide amphiphiles

    Orphan date April 2012 Peptide amphiphile s are peptide based molecules that self assemble into high aspect ratio nanofibers. They were first described by the group of Samuel I. Stupp at Northwestern University in 2003. These molecules typically have three regions a hydrophobic tail, a region of beta sheet forming amino acids, and a peptide epitope designed to allow solubility of the molecule in water, perform a biological function by interacting with living systems, or both. Self assembly occurs by the combination of hydrogen bonding between beta sheet forming amino acids and hydrophobic collapse of the tails to yield the formation of cylindrical micelles that present the peptide epitope at extremely high density at the nanofiber surface. This self assembly of molecules into fibers occurs spontaneously in all solutions of peptide amphiphiles, which have a vanishingly small critical micelle concentration. By changing pH or adding counterions to screen the charged surfaces of fibers, gels can be formed. It has been shown that injection of peptide amphiphile solutions in vivo leads to in situ gel formation due to the presence of counterions in physiological solutions. This, along with the complete biodegradability of the materials, suggests numerous applications in in vitro and in vivo ... to this, peptide amphiphiles can be used to form more sophisticated architectures.
