Abstract Background Several computational methods have been developed to predict protein-protein interactions from amino acid sequences, but most of those are intended for the within a species rather than across different species. Methods predicting between homogeneous proteins not appropriate finding heterogeneous since they do distinguish same Results We new method representing protein sequence variable length in frequency vector fixed length, which encodes relative three consecutive acids...

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common type of arthritis with no effective therapy. Subchondral bone and overlying articular cartilage are closely associated function as "osteo-chondral unit" in joint. Abnormal mechanical load leads to activated osteoclast activity increased resorption subchondral bone, which implicated onset OA pathogenesis. Thus, inhibiting activation could prevent onset. Betaine, isolated from Lycii Radicis Cortex (LRC), has been demonstrated exert anti-inflammatory,...

RNA is emerging as a valuable target for the development of novel therapeutic agents. The rational design RNA-targeting small molecules, however, has been hampered by relative lack methods analysis molecule–RNA interactions. Here, we present our efforts to develop such platform using photoaffinity labeling. This technique, termed Photoaffinity Evaluation Ligation-Sequencing (PEARL-seq), enables rapid identification molecule binding locations within their targets and can provide information...
