David Liu, same guy from last homework, he also isolated a cDNA clone from snake venom library. The nucleotide sequence of this cDNA clone is shown here: AAAACCATCAAATACGTTATGCTGGAATGCAACGAACTGATCCCGCTGTTCTACGAAACCT GCCCGGCTGGTGAAAACATCTGCTACGAAATGTTCATGGTTGCTACCCCGAAAGTTCCGTGC GAACGTGGTTGCATCGACGTTTGCCCGGAATCTTCTCTGATCGTTAAATACGTTTGCTGCAA CACCGACCGTTGCCAGTAATCCAGCGCCTGATCTCTCGAAATAAAAGCCGCATTG (1) Please help him to analyze the cutting patterns of following restriction enzyme: EcoRI, Sau3AI, HinfI and MseI. ===> There is no recognition site of EcoRI in this sequence. See more details (2) Please help him to find its corresponding polypeptide sequence. ===> The most possible sequence of the 6 reading frames. M L E C N E L I P L F Y E T C P A G E N I C Y E M F M V A T P K V P C E R G C I D V C P E S S L I V K Y V C C N T D R C Q See the results of the translation (3) Please help him to identify this toxin. Is it a new toxin? ===> This is a new toxin. From NCBI BLAST search results , the most similar one is LO4640 . However, it is so different from the query sequence. (4) David would like to see its structure. Could you help him to find structure of this toxin or make a model if it is a new protein? Show structure on your homwpage ( 3 different views). |
