Results from our forumpotential Vaccine Candidates... Colleagues, Recently, we have published MHCBN version 4.0 in BMC research notes. This databases contains T-cell epitopes, potential candidates for subunit vaccine design. Original MHCBN database (Bioinformatics Vol. 19 no. 5 2003) is heavily used by scientific community; cited more than 100 times ...

Protein Synthesis Steps... a Quicktime video that might help. There are a few things I wish I could change. For instance, the mRNA should loop into a circle before the small subunit of the ribosome docks at the 5' cap. Overall though, this shows the steps of transcription, splicing, nuclear export and ribosomal assembly ...

Gene expression... that produce their own polypeptide products. But the fact that a hemoglobin molecule contains two alpha chains does not necessarily mean that one subunit came from one allele and the other came from the other allele. both alleles produce their proteins independently, and then the alpha chains ...

Re: Heme group question... sure: My textbook lists heme and heme group as different entries. So they are still the same???? According to my textbook, a heme is a "Each subunit has a nonpolypeptide component, called heme, with an iron atom that binds oxygen." The definition does not include the word group. Could ...

Control of embryonic gene translation... of dormancy (assuming spores as well?), that mRNA processing will yield an incomplete poly'A tail, which disallows the binding of the ribosomal subunit etc. When development is triggered, an enzyme will complete the Poly'A tail, allowing for the binding of the small ribosomal sub-ubit, and thus ...
