ABSTRACT
Kumar A, Zakir
Khawaja M, Ul Haq Qureshi A., Predicted structure of an unknown protein
sequence from US patent 8211428A. Onl J Bioinform., 14 (2): 118-125, 2013. The protein sequence of an unknown organism (US
Patent 8211428) from GenPept database (ACCESSION AFO13014) was predicted using 3D structure,
molecular weight, theoretical pI, atomic composition,
transmembrane segment prediction and domain identification. The retrieved
sequence was used for homology modelling to identify the organism and its
species. Atomic composition result revealed that the protein sequence consisted
of C1222H1916N354O371S17 with a molecular weight of 28047.8 kdal and 260 residues suggesting that the atomic
composition is involved in the synthesis of the protein sequence and an iteration in any atom could change the sequence and its
structure. The instability index (II) was found to be 32.17 which classifies the protein as stable. The theoretical pH was
estimated to be 7.52 with 3880 atoms which suggest that the protein sequence carries no
net electrical charge. The protein domain of the submitted sequence was Trypsin
with 120, 212,73 active sites with an E-value of
1.4e-74. 3D modelling with 3d jigsaw
server revealed the structure analyzed with Rasmol
with 228 groups with 1753 bonds, 3 Helices, 18 Strands and 32 Turns. Blastp showed that the unknown protein sequence has
complete similarity with Homo Sapiens and probably
belongs to that species.
