Pregunta 1
Pregunta
Of known structures (60-80% of genes) how many are multidomain proteins?
Pregunta 2
Pregunta
Different combinations of domains are advantageous because they allow the organism to specialise
Pregunta 3
Pregunta
How can we recognize domains?
Respuesta
-
DNA sequencing
-
Amino acid sequencing
-
Structure
-
Topology (fold)
Pregunta 4
Pregunta
Why are DNA/amino acid sequencing of little use when investigating relationships between proteins?
Respuesta
-
As diversion occurs, sequence patterns are lost even as the fold remains the same
-
They can detect short evolutionary relationships only
-
The techniques for reading the sequences are unreliable
-
Identical sequences can give different aa sequences/folds
Pregunta 5
Pregunta
When investigating using structure, how do we identify domains?
Pregunta 6
Pregunta
There is a limited number of folds in nature (10^3-4)
Pregunta 7
Pregunta
Structural similarity occurs from what kind of evolution?
Pregunta 8
Pregunta
Sequence is more highly conserved than protein structure
Pregunta 9
Pregunta
Define convergent evolution
Respuesta
-
The independent evolution of similar features in different lineages
-
The carrying of a feature from a common ancestor into two lines, which allows the reconvergence of the two lines into a single species again
-
The dependent evolution of similar features in two species that interact/co-operate closely
