LINKER: a web server to generate peptide sequences with extended conformation.

Abstract:

:LINKER was developed as an online server to assist biomedical researchers to design linker sequences for constructing functional fusion proteins. The program automatically generates a set of peptide sequences that are known to adopt extended conformations as determined by X-ray crystallography and NMR. In addition to the desired linker sequence length, the web interface provides a number of optional input parameters so that the users may enhance sequence selection based on the requirements of specific applications. The output of LINKER includes a list of peptide sequences with specified length and sequence characteristics. A graphical subroutine was implemented to highlight the chemical features of every linker sequence by hydrophobicity plots. LINKER can be accessed at http://astro.temple.edu/~feng/Servers/BioinformaticServers.htm.

  • Selective disruption of the DNA polymerase III α-β complex by the umuD gene products.

    abstract::DNA polymerase III (DNA pol III) efficiently replicates the Escherichia coli genome, but it cannot bypass DNA damage. Instead, translesion synthesis (TLS) DNA polymerases are employed to replicate past damaged DNA; however, the exchange of replicative for TLS polymerases is not understood.
